incomprehensible the mortal change

incomprehensible the mortal change
all there before, not here again no more
from what one was to what he's now, so strange

ineffable enough to make a soul deranged
what once walked round now lies beneath the floor
incomprehensible the mortal change

the flesh that lived, now from its bone's estranged
shut down, broken, he's slipped past coffin's door
from what one was to what he's now, so strange

alternative to fate can'tbe arranged
my heart and mind has been an open sore
incomprehensible the mortal change

all that made him so him now's rearranged
can't be that him without the flesh he bore
from what one was to what he's now, so strange

there is no gold on Earth to make exchange
return, undo, make him how was before
incomprehensible the mortal change
from what one was to what he's now, so strange

(C)2010, Christos Rigakos
