The Angel of the Dead
poem and song
by Yehuda D. Shenef, August 2008,
recorded January 1, 2026
A sort of solitude
Caused me to listen
To an unheard voice
The language of stones
Whispered illegible
Invisible, thrice
Stoned silence
Yells in the air
Each letter a siren
The fragments of life
Shattered in the mud
Faded dim-light stories
Of three flower buds
The Dead
They have chosen me
The Dead
They’ve singled me out
From the Living
To be
To be
their speaker
their messenger
their angel
Each of them
Is telling me
History
To be told
The Rabbis, the babies
The young and the old
Tell them
They say
Tell them:
I WAS SOMEONE
Tell them
They dun me
To tell you:
There has never been
Another time
The Dead do not praise
Neither the voiceless*
So I speak
Their plain speech of desire
So I speak words of wisdom
Although their voice
Never will be mine
Everything
I am speaking of
I am not
Since I am still alive
I am nothing
Even tough I speak
Because I speak
My hands are tied
My tongue is tired
