Song One (last song)

in the end, isn’t this world just an excuse- 
for potential’s half-open purse?

one imagines so.
 but your voice from the grave is hope for the alive world.

we are rapt; 
we sing, so quietly
sotto voce
“Shepherds in the fields of ivy 
-- abiding --
-- preparing --
In excelsis Deo
Gloria”
