Styrofoam gravesites can talk
Monuments to faces I never saw
Learning the language between the lines
Crowding all the tombstones next to mine
Herculean tasks, after all our masks
Aren’t coming with us
Naked as baptism or birth
Purgatory sure does look like Earth
Skeletons of the people I knew
Go about their lives, what they always do
Herculean tasks, after all our masks
Aren’t coming with us
Herculean tasks have all your questions been asked
And will it kill you to not know?
