A still breeze

A still breeze, and trees

like empty cities.

Fallen leaves on the ground.

 

Ill pleased and brown,

their crumpled effigies

resound...

...Turn around, turn around.

Right around,

right around.

For the mound of our bodies

no sound

echoes now.

No sound, no sound, not now, not now.

For the mound of our bodies

no sound

echoes now...

 

A still breeze and trees grieve

in street cemeteries.

 

No sound, no sound,

no sound echoes now.
