Ashes To Ashes We All Fall To Ground

For a living we spread ourselves prostrate upon the earth

Composted millions for the archaeologists in purple silk boxers

Arranged our limbs in disarray unwashed and bug-eaten paroxysms

Recorded piety in many names wrote scripts for warcraft and schisms

Sweet caring embrace of eternal rest escapes us riotous children
