present is the moment

we die, and then we lie, in caskets
where round faces with penny stares
watch and drop
just like hands will drop
a garden of flowers
deep into the ground
away from people
certain of the world in which they live
of a smartness of tie
of the knots a life will take
and the way a tear is fixed
dry and made again
to the moment we are in

Yes - I agree with Francine - death is pretty final but life goes on. I like the unsentimental way you handle the subject.
