When A Poet Dies

When a poet dies A flock of white birds will dissolve inside the clouds a sleepy and lonely dusk will carry the corpse of the night on his shoulder . No flag will be lowered No anthem will be played but the poet will become a symbol In the last stanza of his poem the readers will never forget This Code . When a poet dies A new conflict starts when your steps falter and stumble and your neck cannot Carry your heavy head when you see Butterfly soul of poet silently dissolve Inside the orange sunset
