The Happily Retired Law Professor

the law professor
has retired

he goes in cognito
in that place
covered by mountains on
all sides

a shangrila
with a secret river
a tunnel
that leads you to a door

into another door
and there he prays
that finally

Death be so kind
to him
that he be fetched
earlier
than what was promised.
