abuin the crematorium
reek tremmles,
syne dwines intae the licht
above the crematorium
smoke trembles,
then fades into the light
amang the altar flooers
a bummer
huntin nectar
amongst the altar flowers
a bee
seeking nectar
i the tuim herth
a vause o reid roses
bleezin
in the empty hearth
a vase of red roses
blazing
aw day feidin
as brithers an sisterss dae -
it nicht she caums's dreid
all day feuding
as brothers and sisters do -
at night she calms his fears
