First Line: An old man died
Last Line: Unless the fog comes.
Subject(s): Death; Fog; Dead, The; Haze
An old man died.
They buried him in fog
And hated it.
I want to die in fog,
To slip away without their prying eyes
As I did when too many knew;
She said, "Tell them
And satisfy their minds."
But I slipped away in fog.
And now I'll have to die being watched
Unless the fog comes.
