I told my husband I want to be cremated because I don't do bugs. He said bugs don't get in coffins. I don't want to take any chances. I am very allergic to insects. One bit can put me in the hospital. Your poem is extremely well written.

I like your reference to the phoenix in your tanka. It's a great symbol of rebirth and we know that our earthly bodies are not what we will have in eternity!
