Poems
Oct 2012
persona piece from a dying mother
when they cover me
White sheet on face
Earth burying box
dance on my grave.
i want every child
at my funeral
to dig their hands
into my soil
take a part of me again
broken so you can live
let me hold you
love me like
The fall
when it comes
i am the roots
you are the leaves
