Dear Undertaker
Dear Undertaker,
Please Sir,
See that I
Am unfit for burial
Please Sir,
Look past my blue lips,
Gaze into my clouded eyes.
Find that I am still alive.
Please Sir,
I beg of you,
Warm these cold-as-clay hands
Ignore my lack of heartbeat!
Find that i am still alive.
Please Sir,
Do not place me in a wooden box!
I may not talk,
May not breathe,
My heart may not beat,
I may not bleed.
But please Sir,
I am very much, still alive.
Please Sir,
I may not be like you,
My heart gone still,
But I am yet to die.
So release my clay-cold hands,
Remove me from this box!
This corpse has yet to die.
