Requiem For a Snail (Free verse) by Heidegger
Oh hapless snail. Forgive me,
but you would have eaten up the tender petals
and my beautiful flowers would have been ruined.
My beautiful flowers.
It was for their sake, for their sake
I plucked you out of your heaven
and crushing your happiness
made your death.
Dear God-
We commend into Thy mercy
All other Thy servants
Which are departed hence from us
And now do rest in the sleep of peace.
Grant unto them, we beseech Thee,
Thy mercy and everlasting peace.
