Tibetan prayers risin’
from outta the south,
prayers you’d wanna hear
if you were gonna die,
face close to the mirror
scenes of what has been
the play of near an’ dear
articulated kinda queer
due to senses snuffin’ out,
prayers to ease you into
the state of in-between,
quiet closing of the door
tears peace sweet release
