Burn or Worm in the Ground

Burn or worm in the ground

A dilemma before me
As I sit on the pile of my life
What would you do
Light a match
Or sit in a pine box
Being lowered in the soil
Or blazing Fahrenheit
Always thought I’d be born again
So I wanted to live in my wooden home
Now I resign myself to the pyre
Ashes put into a nice urn
Want to jump out of the fire
Say I’m still alive
