a sadder darker place

[fledgist]

 

a sadder darker place is where we end
the road we tread has many horrid turns
and what each gets is less than what he earns

each time we reach a corner or a bend
we hope to see for what the leader yearns
a darker sadder place is where we end

nothing that you could ever hope to send
will matter when our ashes are in urns
already heavy flesh just melts and burns
a sadder darker place is where we end
