The Dogs of Asnieres 

We bury the dogs we bury the cats 
we bury the horses we bury the men 
we bury Spirit we go bury Life 
we bury our loves  --  Love
we bury in silence Silence 
we bury in peace  --  Peace 
Peace  --  peace that's most profound 
under layers of tiny multicoloured stones
of Saint-Jacques shells and multicoloured flowers 

there is but one tomb for all 
in awaiting condition
It's so in night and day 
in awaiting condition

the Seine descends into the sea 
the immobile island does not descend 
the Seine returns to its source 
in awaiting condition
and the island navigates to the Haven of Grace
in awaiting condition

We bury the dogs we bury the cats 
Two species which do not like each other
