It fluttered and failed for breath.

roots of pine trees pushed through the pale curves of your ribs,
yellow blossoms flourished above you in autumn, and in winter
frost heaved your bones in the ground—old toilers, soil makers:
O Roger, Mackerel, Riley, Ned, Nellie, Chester, Lady Ghost.”

“To want fame is to prefer dying scorned than forgotten.”
—E.M. Cioran (b. 1911)
