how to not make waste; cry over everything so pain does not go to the flies over graves. let it go to art or love maybe something sane. water your plants each waking day so they can live but when it comes time for burning season, cry over everything so they know you miss them. the fields are empty now / a cremation of your dust you couldn't have saved anyone/ so you exist in utter shame and return to our dust.
