Dignity
To bestow beauty and lambency
For he will continually lust
And be doomed to regress
Living dignity may dawn anew
Perfection
To bestow grace and purity
For he will continually lust
And be doomed to regress
Living perfection may dawn anew
Fly
The feathers, they fell with starlight
Baptizing them one with grace and disorder
With the lambency of your final flight
You leave behind love in your wake
Fear not the earth and sea beneath you
For you shall fear only fear itself
And though your wings may be clipped
Even Icarus flew in his last moments
Be christened in the chime of your
Final hour, the shine of your
Blood sweat and tears may christen you
Human, even as the vestiges of life leave
A celebration of life is not true
Without the clouds of finality on the horizon
Remember your fortune, as you wander the skies
For one can only live for having died
