*Written for day 16 of PAD. Prompt: "death."
I do not think the dead cry for us
as we for them
we collected saltwater, in jars,
to prove our feelings for him,
our dead king, the golden
one, his armies massed and at
the ready.....
how many head of cattle?
how many battalions, how
many flags to unfurl in
the underworld?
how large his granaries?
I do not think the dead cry for us
as we for them
