By Rites
by rites we come into now
by rites we leave into then
by rites we mark the in between
by rites maybe we start again
by rites we say "I love you"
by rites we bring on progeny
by rites we launch into unknown
by rites we cleave dichotomy
by rites we celebrate today
by rites we mark contrast
by rites we are carried away
by rites we remember the past
by rites we reverently resolve
so, by rites kept, life revolves
