Clean Tight Skin or a Saggy Fractured Hip

The other day I was sitting with friends and we spoke about death. We have all had a rough year with the loss of a close friend and sometimes talking about it was the best or worst idea. It is after all, quite the dichotomy: beauty and tragedy. Something we question and rationalize and something we avoid thinking about all together. I pondered my conclusion.


Feel for Thought:
In the Ground with the Worms, In the Sky with the Birds

I think I will probably die an old woman
With my friends beside me in their graves.
But perhaps this is God's way of playing tricks on me.
Perhaps I will be alone and young
And most likely I will never know
Until it's all said and done
Staring above or below
