Go Slow, Go Easy
Go slow
Our forebearers
I await you
Why hurry unto death? Why not?
Go slow.
Go easy.
Vampire strikes; sucks sweet soul.
Go slow.
Go easy.
Indigo, oozes.
Transfers
Spirit of energy to psyche of death.
Go slow.
Go easy.
Parasite intones
He screams “I won”.
He yelps “It’s over”
Effort fails. River Styx looms yonder.
Go slow.
Go easy.
Leech be gone; illumination beams
Go slow.
Go easy.
Resplendent hope appears.
More than Effexor, more than Cymbalta,
More than bi polar maniacal craze.
More than Wellbutrin medicinal haze.
Go slow.
Go easy.
Doom, the reward, is
Too soon gained.
Doom, the reward,
Is too soon gained.
