the myriad things are different in life but the same in
death. in life they may be worth or stupid, honorable
or humble. this is where they differ. and when we
differ we should with passion and conviction. fot it is
only the dead that take no offense when food is scarce
or when a neighbor offends his honor. in death there is
no offense in the stinking disgrace shot from the
mouths of whores and haughty men, for in death all
things stink, rot, disintegrate, and disappear, even
honor and humble station, but in life we must have
respect for all different.
if the sign of life is in your face
he who responds to it
will feel secure and fit
as when in a friendly place
sure of hearty care
a traveler gladly waits
to blame your brother for your curse
is not karma but a devil's twisted tongue.
