so much sorrow in the soil down

so much sorrow in the soil down
where raw integrity finds no reason
why a need for deep sleep prevails
amongst the angry and the dead

deprived and inlaid like a tiny shard
raised like a shiny hell above water
I find no reason to expel watery sprites
from the sea of mercury moon rising

I do remember the sound of his voice
the images he leaked over a landscape
sultry in the afternoon glare to night
where one more recollection awaited

I read this as a tale of the dead and the question regarding their influence. Does it still exist when we are in the ground? Or are we just recollections? Beautifully written.

i read that english is not your native language, yet this reads beautifully, effortlessly, in english.

i don't know what it means, but it brings forth images which mean something to me.
