Living is what I wanted : last poems

Poems on death. In The Living, he writes: "Death provides the food: / the zebra lay on its side / clawed into silence, / the tigress on her belly / gnawing at the belly / of the zebra with bloody teeth. / And the living zebras / at a distance, head bowed / toward the earth, eat / of the living grass."
