IT'S GROWING INSIDE US

 The dead

are truly dead,

and the living -

they have a seed of

death in their cells.

With each heartbeat,

each breath they take,

their death grows in them,

takes shape, spreads

its web, this fetus

growing to be born,

to be the moment

which ends the mind

which lives always

for the future.

You are the womb

for your own

death.
