lyrics

The best way to honor me, after my time of dying,
is to give the planet back the space I've been occupying.
Please don't plant me in the cold, cold ground,
give my ashes to the river, let me soul float down.
I am fire & water, I was wind & the earth,
dissolving in it, immersion the way I'm quenching my thirst,
I hope nobody's in attendance that attended my birth,
but if they are, the same tears'll be bookending my verse.
If like the owl I ascend to my perch, then so be it.
If nothingness descends like a curtain, I don't fear it.
I hope that you remember the person I meant to be,
but castles made of sand swept from the surface eventually.
If geological time is a week in July,
then I lasted like a millionth of a blink of an eye,
but inside that blink I left this meager message,
& inside this moment you blessed me with your attention,
so thank you.
