She Belongs To The Sky
Burn me, gently gently,
In fire, with rain.
Burn me, 'til the ashes of me smell savoury,
'Til the clouds, puffy and full, are steps into the skies,
Cinder, hissing at water's touch
Then take me, gently gently
Blow me into the tepid breeze
Into a field as coniferous as my spirit
Spill me into the Niger, where it makes tributaries
Sprinkle me, into flower beds in a nursery
Set me free.
Do not trap me in a coffer
