GRAVES FOR THE LIVING _ a poem by Yuri Kageyama
Graves aren’t for
Those Buried only
They’re for those
Who’re still Alive _
They don’t Speak Back,
They don’t expect Much,
Ready to be Forgotten
If not already Forgotten;
So Go There,
To the Graves,
While You Live,
To Be Forgiven:
Graves Are
Gifts From the Dead
For the Living.
