ALL HALLOWS' EVE
Haunted and orbed
the moon scoffs at passersby
painted with blood
to purchase candy

SUDDENLY
You weren't supposed to die
Not like this, without a word
With no goodbye, without a kiss

DUST TO DUST
This earth is not of man
Man is of the earth
— dust to dust —
In the Amazon man is earth
Mud and man are one
River, canoe, bank, and man
Share the color of a lump of clay
Only differing in tone.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.
