Dying in the Killing Jar
here I am
[dying in the killing jar]
want to be
[breathing in Heaven’s air]
don’t’ you need
[something more than promises]
don’t you care
[intangible and nevermore]
“you led me to your alcove
lest I never sleep
bracing for indemnity
a porous watch I keep
“and ‘though I never doubt you
my fears are e’er there
a bastion of suspicions,
solace, and despair”
here I am
[dying in the killing jar]
