Feast for tomorrow

Flies flying around agaitate me.
My strong voice announces, “I will die tomorrow; not today”
Enraged I rush to the window for some fresh air.
Only to find crows, and hawks, and vultures waiting quietly
In a line for a piece of my flesh.
I do not want to disappoint any. Hence I keep on announcing,
“I will die tomorrow, not today”

All will have a share of my sweat and blood, flesh and bones
After my death tomorrow, not today.
