"Laughing weeper"

When a man dies
one thousand waters roll down another man's face
when a man dies
Birds chirp on every tree sorrowfully
when a man dies
heaven doors open widely
as he is swallowed by the earth
when a man dies
the earth is saved of another deformity
he could have caused
so she (earth)smiles
when a man dies
even his foe fears him for once
he says:he is now different from who he used to be
when a man dies
his belongings cries when he is about to be swallowed by the earth
and after eight days
they dance sorrowful happily our father died well
what a grievous mistake
let dead sleeps in peace
for he knows not of celebration of life he lost already.
