How beautiful to be seen
The quiet of the living is one of the great reliefs
Over there on the other side, it’s like that all the time
Tomorrow I will be on an airplane home
Could I have a glass of water, please?
I had something important to declare
I didn’t know how to reply
A few days later, I died
The night before, we loved each other still
I was a joke, and my life was a joke
I could have stayed in the ground for eternity
He got exactly what he wanted
There was no one around to see it
