SACRED GROUND


  Through the mist that covers the sacred ground

  This consecrated covering this resting place so still

  I approach my life with the sacred sacrament of man

  That, which is meant to be held, closes ones heart...


  Through this silk covering there is no sound or movement

  All is dead and succulent lean and eaten away like a famine

  Where one goes to die before the feast has started, before

  The gestures from those who fulfill our destiny prove to themselves

  That there is more to life than just vernacular intercourse...


  When will those who reign realize the imperative cause...?

  That lies at their feet is more than a picture show, a onetime movement!

  This festering is constant now, it is perpetual like a pendulum in motion

  Through the mist I walk this sacred ground, this consecrated covering

  What I see makes my eyes shed water, but not enough to keep the babies alive!
