Time hangs from your skeleton limbs It rocks back and forth Like a pendulum. Life and Death's momentum, Swinging to Her vibrations Our Mother's sadness and elation Her hate and adoration. Take this decay as a creation, Our bones are aging to perfection; A fine selection of dust to spread From toes to head, To nurture and neglect Her children who cry and beg. Their suffering will end As we return to fertile dirt And let our souls be absorbed, By the womb we once adored.
