Death and life is their daily work.
Death seams up and down the leaf.
I call the leaves my death girls.”

Making death their ideal basis for different ideals.
The Communists however disapprove of death
Except when practical.”

Of war, and died
Digging the rock where Death reputes
Peace lies indeed.”
