Tragic Rabbit Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 dig In the middens of our minds We mill about the margins, Watching family, friends And other fanged beasts Paw through the rubbish In search of clues, news, treasure; Answers to our riddles Reasons for our rhythms Seasons in heart?s rhymes Patterns in the dust Past Times illuminate Say those who Excavate The heaps of detritus, decay, despair That litter our preliterate cranium; Spinal cortex, shadows of the Id Animal instincts we cannot explain Nightmare and reflex, remembered Memories in amber, caught with flies, Mummified, calcified, fossilized In levels, like tree rings or rock strata We watch these independent observers Dissect and direct us; in labile labs We writhe under pitiless knives Lives expended, explored, exhumed; We watch mute, helpless as these Self appointed surgeons Archeologists of the Soul Lay out who we were, are, as if For a morgue?s steel tables Or the impersonal eye of God * Link to comment
