today we’ll sow the ashes
where they’ll float on the mud
what can grow from this sodden ground?
from a life without warmth?
of greed and bitterness?
we’ll scatter the ashes
of the hard-hearted crone
we’ll picture her smile
that did not cheer
her grasping claw
her constant scorn
what can grow from the ashes
of a life of spite?
in a thousand years
a single twisted shrub
with no green sap
dry branches like bones
a hard black wood
that does not burn
a bitter fruit
black and wrinkled
on which feeds hate
we’ll scatter the ashes
as the rain falls on and on
end of a life so sour
even its end can do only harm
