we learned to sit like birds on a wire,
the bicycle,
unicycle, the backward somersault,
the front somersault, the chair on the wire,
the bed on a cloud,
seated in a hyperloop toilet,

96 in an 8,
jumping through hoops: what we are doing here?
it looks almost unreal, so

They say be scared of funerals
Because the wooden box traps beasts.
I say what is one funeral compared to the whole

Packed them like sardines, their skeletons grinding bones to dust,
Crunching sounds you can only hear
If you get close enough to smell the decay.
