Seven Curses

















May you be consulted to the point of annoyance
on when, how and whether you wish to be born.

May you be afflicted
with rose-scented farts.

May you endure a lifelong
aversion to offal and tripe.

May the dog bite that wakes you to put out
a house fire be an inconvenience of sorts.

May your skill on the contrabassoon
become a source of embarrassment.

May strangers pick
pillow fights with you.

May your wellbeing
prove terminal.
