THE GRAVEWORMS

Why do we fear the flesh and hide our eyes
warm above the earth
in which they writhe
*
More like them it seems
each passing day
We can feel the light but cannot find our way
*
They will have their time out in the sun
'till then they'll hold the door for everyone
*
Take the meaning out of all these words
Make the world safe for the graveworms
*
The horror was an angel before death
The guru kills beneath the bladed grass
*
Just about the time I got ready to run
I saw myself inside a pine wood box
*
They will have their time out in the sun
'till then they'll hold the door for everyone
*
Take the meaning out of all these words
Make the world safe for the graveworms
