let's raise the dead
and disinter, all
the things that were
before;
the past lives on
inside our heads
- let's raise the dead
let's dig into the
holding soil,
and view the objects
of our toil;
roots and worms that
we have fed
- let's raise the dead
let's scatter them, like
autumn leaves,
scraps tilted to the
breeze
all the stale memories
drifting overhead;
the beautiful and obscene,
those bright moments
inbetween
imagined as well as seen
-let's praise the dead.

Hi Spike,
I do wonder sometimes why Poetry of this
calibre can be left ''Uncommented'' on for so
long. And I wonder why ''I'' have failed to
read this piece earlier than now. Mea culpa,
mea culpa, mea maxima culpa!
An excellent rendition that indicates so
elegantly why the best laid schemes o' mice
an' men gang aft the gley!
Tommy
