DEATH Poem: Prayer., by Phillip McQuade

Lay me down and easy
And let me down slowly
Forgive me for being weak
May you help not to hurt too many stead
I beg that you give them my best memories And none
of the bad

Shield them from my transgression Give me solace in
your embrace Leave me not in disgrace
May you not think me stupid

I was very wounded
Let me see you in heaven

I’ll be dead soon I reckon
