Trees cleansing themselves
shed dead skin and dry blossoms
retrieve life through death.

Once upon a time
tender life brought happiness—
flowers also die

A good place to die—
with flowers and company,
a good place to live.

when music stops, lights go off;
just a pile of bones.

Come my time to sleep
may the snakes slither slightly
