Out of the clouds, like a whale aims the air
	     A mountain breaks through there
             to greet you
		The churchyard lies still
		As the whale guards it’s memories
		And swallows both felon and true

	    A headstone you see, 
            among others alike
	    poem engraved to remind us
		No eternity here
		All matter is passing
		But our thoughts may transform into flowers

			Cast a cold eye on life
			Cast a cold eye on death
			Cast a cold eye on life
			ast a cold eye on …. death
