such that death: twinned...
and waited...
and waited...
and waited...
    and waited to rhyme:
of death...
             and... earth...
if i had the best excuse....
this might be it...
but it's not...
had i invested in...
paint... brushes...
canvas... galore...
         a poem a postcard...
you have to write:
on a corpus...
riddling itself:
a best "excuse"
to confine the anchor,
body... suitor... coffin:
and confines: gravity:
grave!
         don't ask me to grovel!
that death is so awaited...
such the enriched:
loved-up... spectacular...
i havd to worry....
having to...
          loot...
a hybrid of benefactory laughter
and the hubris of a sigh:
closure: of a half-living...
best expressed:
fully... corpse.
