I pour the acidic vinegar
deep into the salt salt soy sauce
and spice with cardamom.
The whole is set aside to mingle and
only later do I lovingly
place the slice of the dead
cow in the liquor.
One hour and I remove to
the cold of the box
The dark box
The box with the other dead
The plants
The animals
All dead until I eat
them.
Then they become alive again
Resurrected by my life forces.
