34| When I think of death I think
35| of Peter Falk in _The Princess Bride_ patting
36| [his pockets][] as he leaves the room
37
38| Life is a series of doors or so
39| they say but I ask them this
40| where does that last door lead?
41
42| For Falk maybe it leads backstage
43| a black-walled catered affair with stage
44| lights slowly baking stale muffins
45
46| [Sweaty cheese][] leaking onto dried-out
47| grapes a chocolate fountain clogged
48| by some errant strawberry crown
49
50| but this is not where it leads for you or
51| for me that door opens onto darkness marked
52| only by a trellis or the lid of a casket
53
54| the door of the [earth's womb][] opening
55| finally to accept us and with us the dirt
56| not to grow more strawberries for Falk
57
58| but to pad his feet as he walks overhead
59| to visit someone he certainly cares about
60| but whose name is lost to posterity.
