Having just seen
the world’s worst decades,
we’re tortoised in our faith,
the world of Hades
and the cessation of
our tale; after all,
for light to come on
the curtain must fall,
it’s a fact, there’s
inner peace there. But as I
was saying we really
should obey the signs.
Conceding quietly
might just work out
for the best. What I
know without doubt,
what I seen with these eyes
lessoned by war,
is that it doesn’t matter
who you are;
what imports
in the end is the way
the body just knows
it’s time to decay.
