when you wait for the dawn to crawl through the screen like a burglar to take your life away
the snake had crawled the hole, and she said, tell me about yourself.
and I said, I was beaten down long ago in some alley in another world.
and she said, we’re all like pigs slapped down some lane, our grassbrains singing toward the blade.
by god, you’re an odd one, I said.
we sat there smoking cigarettes at 5 in the morning.
- Charles Bukowski
Hark! From the tombs a doleful sound;
Mine ear attends the cry;
“Ye living men come view the ground where you must shortly lie…
— Isaac Watts, Hymns and Spiritual Songs, 1707
