It was a time
When death was too common
To be hidden from children

When alter boys were not destroyed
However tender might be their age
By smoke that masked the smell

For after all
It wasn’t they who were
Being laid out on silk
In severed flowers
For those in pews to see

How near to each
By fate or chance
That silent hatch to eternity
Though one not want
The door
