BRDTH

Breathe your breath
in and out
to forestall death

Expand your chest
to meet
the sword of death

Flex your gut
and sing your breath
to trumpet death

Dance your breath
Somersault
the horns of death

Blow your breath
right through
the teeth of death

Villanelle death
Work it on out
Only rhyme for death
