Death hides in the body
but who sees? It’s obscure
living on the edge
seeking space into swamp
they all talk about the sun
swelling in the sky
and close eyes to the spider
spinning waves on the ceiling
all alone, but who care?
suspicion and distance
like lovers they pretend
to leave, yet stay longer
dishing out luxuries
showing off generosity
on the heart’s fancy table
waiting to welcome the guest
-R.K.Singh
Death In The Ceiling
~~like lovers they pretend to leave...I love this passage - Lady A
