Ashes To Ashes

From inside the ashes
I'll see the world.
Cast me adrift, consign me to
the will of the wind
the will of the waves.
The silent lonely earth
beneath
these cold gray feet.


From inside the ashes
I'll rule the world.
All
will come
from me.
New life
old death,
All
will be
of me.


From inside the ashes
peace will find me.
Millions of ages,
lifetimes from now

rest


from inside the ashes.
