No Postmortems Please by Gregory Orr
No postmortems, please.
The world is immortal.
The world renews itself.
What about poems and songs –
Do they perish?
Maybe they only
Vanish awhile.
Maybe they go underground
To gather some other
Knowledge and come back
In another form:
New words, a new melody,
Yet somehow
The same beloved,
Singing the same song.
~ Gregory Orr ~
