Until the End
Would you push
another soul off a cliff,
a rafter,
a ship? - walk the plank
aye, matey
that is, if you knew nobody was watching
if nobody was there,
ever to know,
would you do it?
if there were nobody to squeal,
to taddle,
to break,
engulf you in the scene of the crime
just how high do our morals stand?
We're going to breathe until the day we die
just keep at it
keep breathing, keep breathing
Myself?
I'm going to keep breathing until I stop
'til the very last breath in my body lets itself out
and whispers
"Stop."
