The smile of the dead fade
The smile of the dead is history
The smile of the dead bleed
The smile of the dead is a mystery

The sights of the dead vanish
The sights of the dead can’t see
The sights of the dead burnish
The sights of the dead taunt me!

Wind wracked Waves in there speech!
Revenge rage regret as they preach
Wretched white whale in a pinch

The feelings of the dead are mute
The feelings of the dead are painless
The feelings of the dead do not aggravate
The feelings of the dead are harmless

The hearing of the dead is deaf
The hearing of the dead does not vibrate
The hearing of the dead is off
The hearing of the dead does not alternate

Mad merry myths with the dead
Loose lost lives of the living dead
Sad sorrowful sarcastic living dead

Dead yet Alive.
