Just in case
you hear of my demise
perhaps
a piano caught me under it
by surprise or
a measly microbe
cut me down mid-stride or
if I’m lucky
I never woke up from
a better dream or
even luckier
I bid adieu
by the waving and force
of my own hand.

read about it
in the back pages
of the local paper,
this is just to say -
I’m fine with it.
