It's a sweet, sharp sting, your mouth on mine. We're melting like fat in a pyre. It won't be long now. It can't be long. Before we go I must relay your hair is full of leaves, burning up like stars. The heat is a black hall pounding down around us. Will we walk together through its inner sanctums, hand in hand forever, or will this be the final play? If so, please look into my eyes and see the way that I see you -- as you see me. Together, darling, as we fall below the throng of gathered sight. Their words are whispers. Listen to them break across the forest clearing. From "Witch! Witch! Witch!" to "Ich liebe dich." A small mercy, ours to be sure. May they witness our final sparks. See what I'll be up to on Saturday: www.bubastis.com/funeral |
