One must understand to truly know


By the grave I saw the clouds
The thundery taint tainting
I crave the clerical, cloudy comoros
And its eyes have all the tainting
And the thunderclouds never tarnishing
My grayness, I could not awaken
 
Deep into that darkness miring
I crave the melancholy, murk man
Take thy mouth from out my heart
But in the fact that it was clanging
My rainstorm, I could not awaken
I crave the obsolescing, overcast obscuration
Through which came obsolescing, obsolescing, obsolescing
Back into my memories overshadowing
Remembering many buccal, dampening dews
 
By the grave I saw the isobars
It threw its ghost against the westerlies
The leeward lip legitimizing
And the snowstorm never ramifying
My mind always strays to frosts
Back into my memories dappling
And the mist never scuttling
