Chapter 4 - 4: Know Yourself

If I had one dime

For all of the wounds and words

How great would that be?

***

And all we suffer

My scars and their storied songs,

Would spin a great tale.

***

Yes, to die together

is not really such a bad death

Even with no dimes.

***

To die all alone

Is not a bad way to die

either, just as good.

***

If I am to die

With no dimes or companions

I will still be happy

***

Is that afterlife?

The unknown is not scary

If you know yourself.
