       I work in a factory

where I box up
dead animals
to be dissected by
kids
who won't really care
anyway

they'll just
throw them out the
window
when the teacher
is looking the
other way


I think of you
and how
dead
you are to me

your house is close
by

I pass by at
four in the morning
hoping that the wind is
quiet enough
for me to
hear you sleep

you'll never know
how sick I am
for what is
dead and
gone

in me
and
you

this is great work...but so sad...
but sad is beautiful...
lovely...

If all was light...then I would have never learnt the dark...from which such truth evolves
from which evolves the light...
