She fought the fight gone
Energy lost to the fading
Slow stepping beats
Like a labored dragging
Only time remains
Erratic in its spinning
And rigidity laces
Around bones bracing
Cover her in sand
And set a fire blazing
Death in a kiln
A tribute everlasting
And from that fire she will rise renewed.

Yet if she’s made of sand or ash
Then it may come to pass
The kiln’s great heat, and melting down
Will turn her into glass –
Will gather up her brokenness
And turn it into light;
Will cradle, warm, her shattered mess
And turn it all aright.
