Berenice’s Remedial Manufacture

Scroll down to content

Is my body

My own

Without my

Memories?

Does it tell

Tales of

Death and life?

Can it revitalise

The buried

And

Silenced?

Can it bring

Love to life?

Will it

Continuously

Regenerate itself

And weave agony

Into a persistent glory?
