buries

sink a deep hole in hard soil:
postbox for invitations
at the house of the dead.

plant parchment with juniper,
rosemary - drenched and lit
flame into a smokestink so strong
the dead rise (they have to)

on the mountainside behind me.
asking me what my shadow is
once they see it.

the world, the products of
the world,

so soon forgotten.
