the cemetery is covered
with night and silence

As it was…
As it was with warriors of old –
slaughtering wild beasts

carrying the corpses of spiders
on the soles of your feet,
in sacrifice to me
& my phobia.

And just how hard it all has been;
We will always feel within,
The love and grace of Marilyn

with coffee, kiss and a song without words
which will sing any death off your brain

on a bed of fallen leaves

& in the far, the scent of decay
