    Dead

    I was thinking about dead people
    And whether we should think about them
    Or not,
    They don't know either way
    So no service is being paid
    No matter how romanticised.
    I was thinking about how much better
    Dead people are than when they were alive.
    All crap forgotten, all great immortalised,
    Being dead would be great if you weren't.
    Your greatest smile caught on an i phone
    Defining you
    That time you helped somebody, endlessly
    Recycled.
    We have the flick of a light switch alive,
    I was thinking about dead people.

    For those who believe,
    no explanation is necessary.
    For those who do not,
    none will suffice.

    Poignant poem for these times...
    Too many dead here... think about them more and more.

    who am I but a stitch in time
    what if I were to bare my soul
    would you see me origami
