Already half the May gone,
not so far from resolution–
for four months isn't far.
Six decades long habit
has grown old in the body,
touched ground, turned soft.
I have been practicing reclination.
supine, for when they box me in
the corpse mustn't revolt.
Nothing to be done now
of all those procrastinations.
You are gone; they, as good as gone!
