THE BODY ASKS THE SOUL

Will you remember me when I die?
Will you remember the face you had
when you lived in my flesh and I
was home to your rights and days?

Freed from space and from time
when exactly will you miss me?
and where will you remember keenly
love with its honey and its venom?

Soul that dissolves into the all
when lost in what's measureless
you dream about me I'll be ashes

Yo will miss my mud heart
and unashamed and humble you'll yearn
to be fragile matter again
