Giselle Just Died

The broken heart complicated the chronic illness. She never should have fallen in love. But now she died. The women in frosty wedding dresses, who greet her and distract her, appear. Giselle is dancing and pointing to her death. It's my death she says and claims death as her own. Then the others want equal shares. They are all the citizens of death. Death is never happy. When bits of lost living, lost love arrives and even when the queen of death is distracted Gisele eventually has to retreat into the darkness shy, like she was when she was courted.
