a place for everyone

few of us
await death with
such anticipation
as do
the vultures
on limbs
and wires
staring
towards the cold
ground,
patient
for the demise
of others.
ambivalent
in their bundled
black
feathers
and blood
red beaks.
strange how
the world finds
a place
for everyone,
and thing, then
lets it go.
