What is the Laughter of Death Like?
You the learned philosopher
tell me,
What is the laughter of death like?
is it like a hooting owl?
is it like speeding vehicles?
is it like weeping seeds of guns?
is it ever cracking jokes with ghosts at night?
is it the expelled children's party in the womb?
is it juju incarnations?
is it lads' war peace?
is it bitter sweet as hatred love?
Or
it is immortal adultery
Or maybe. . .
But tell me,
What is the laughter of death like?
