Find my body in a state- <br />That mesmerizes eyes. <br />Souls come forth to view it- <br />As it not so quickly dies. <br /> <br />Suffer skin and bone of mine. <br />The people they will please. <br />As I draw my dying breath- <br />I won't, for I'm a tease. <br /> <br />They'll shield me from the scorching heat; <br />My Mississippi burning. <br />Die I'll not in sweaty Summer; <br />Winter's what I'm yearning. <br /> <br />The snow will avalanche my form. <br />Then prances Spring so flitty. <br />Discover- iced: my cold remains. <br />Forever, die, I, pretty.<br /><br />Kyle Hamp<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/die-i-pretty/
