DEATH MOTHER'S LULLABY

Close your eyes, little Rainbow Child
And go back to sleep for a while
Longer
Back to the numbness where
Pain can not sting
Tight in the womb-like embrace
Of Denial
Where innocence awaits you
Once again
Go back to sleep, her Rainbow Child
Mother is here to make you safe again
The price is well worth the cost:
No more pain
Or joy
No rain
Or rainbows
Hear her song, her emerging daughter
Death is sweeter
Than knowledge.
