And Death Shall Have No Dominion
And death shall have no dominion.
Dead man naked they shall be
one
With the man in the wind and the west moon;
When their bones are
picked clean and the clean bones gone,
They shall have stars at elbow and
foot;
Though they go mad they shall be sane,
Though they sink through
the sea they shall rise again;
Though lovers be lost love shall not;
And death shall have no dominion.
And death shall have no
dominion.
Under the windings of the sea
They lying long shall not die
windily;
Twisting on racks when sinews give way,
Strapped to a wheel,
yet they shall not break;
Faith in their hands shall snap in two,
And
the unicorn evils run them through;
Split all ends up they shan't crack;
And death shall have no dominion.
And death shall have no
dominion.
No more may gulls cry at their ears
Or waves break loud on the
seashores;
Where blew a flower may a flower no more
Lift its head to
the blows of the rain;
Though they be mad and dead as nails,
Heads of
the characters hammer through daisies;
Break in the sun till the sun
breaks down,
And death shall have no dominion.

Mum died
yesterday afternoon. I am with her now. Lifes struggles are over. All that
fighting and now she is dead. Now there is nothing. No sound no breath. No
greeting smile nothing. She just lays there motionless. Is she with her
mother and father, sisters, bothers or is there nothing just non existence.
There is only the sound of the refridgeration unit and the traffic in the
street outside. I am very sad, she was my lifelong friend and now she has
gone.
