    old Death, dusty
    gardener, are you
    alive yet, do I live on
    yet, in your gray
    considering eye?

    the heart
    of Mexico sits in the rain
    not caring to seek shelter,
    a blanket of geranium pink drawn up
    over his silent mouth.

    Beespittle, droppings, hairs
    of beefur: all become honey.
    Virulent micro-organisms cannot
    survive in honey.
