The Corpse Road

Calling out without question

Knowing all along life does the asking

We collide our stars and leave soul sized holes

In the solitude of our inner spaces

To dream it all again and hold it in our hands

If only I could dig for spirit

Broken shards might shed some light

On the depths of our time and our place within it

Would I find our own kind an empty vessel

To dream it all again without losing our heads

The corpse road our only birthright

Without our fears let us lean into suffering

With all that we endure across a lifetime

In spite of death, in spite of the unknown

To dream it all again burned into our hearts
