DEATH
You turn our ways into a snare;
You turn our eyes into a fountain pen,
You turn our homes overcrowded-
and our bodies into mime
Our mind and mirth-
Into a grief you turn;
Our heart and face-
all turns into a mandate
Women to widows;
Men to widowers;
Children's to orphans-
Is all you turn people to
.........DEATH.........
