green lilies

she bequeaths the ends

to an early grave

its ambit rent by spade

like the earth

she is but dust

and then dust


 

until an early mourning

she is undetermined

and shallow as the gave


 

soon she will be rested

as auburn hair did once

upon a shore, new

her habitat an easy god

her grace the monotony

of aimlessness and unlike crystal rivers

this apocalypse will be earthward


 

to the gathered

and the heretics

wine to the fallen

and bread to the grave
