it is the dead that invite
me to their table
as the living twitch
their nostrils
whining that odour
the lack of success my body yields
even as my mind
now ploughs chive and garlic fields
to spice and fill my thoughts
with heart healthy food, to dance
beauty despite pain and death
kicking out luck, that chance
