Because I Am Dead
November 26, 2012
The dead don't bleed
They cannot see
Surely I must be dead
They sleep in towns
Under the ground
Frankly I am quite dead
They lie in wait
In lines quite straight
Seriously, I'm dead
They dream of life
I wish for life
This is because I'm dead

Very interesting! I like that the last line of every stanza is similar and the repetitive of it is really great! Great job. 4 stars
