Sky Burial

Bury me in the sky

To leave the earth
Be free of its failings
Time does pass
Yet humanity lays claim to
An endless cycle
Of self genocide

Repulsed, skyward I flee

Eclipsed by disappointment
At a world on its knees

All I ask of this wretched world
Is to be forgotten

(No echo No memory)

Denounce my kind
I yearn
To fade into obscurity

(No echo No memory)

Bury me in the sky

To a world
Hurtling into boundless woe
Despair precedes the drawing of breath
Severance from the cycle
Refusal of earthly interment

Repulsed
Skyward I flee
Repulsed
Skyward I flee
