Blood turns into the morning dew
Nourishing the moss
The flesh is infested with fungus
To be part of her vast root system
The soul becomes a multitude of stars
Light up the night of the drunken man returning home late

Death
Took me to all corners of the universe
A subtle sense of life
Since then
I've become the owner of inner harmony
The complete self
