death is a planet
we can't go to
until we can go and we
still don't know
death is a flower

you can't crawl inside that.

it isn't pushing into birth
or crushing leaves with our feet

death isn't something that you know
until you know and you
still don't know
death is a promise

we never intend to keep.
