Don't Sweat Death, it Is Inevitable

Death is not mocked

Death is a pest 
a pestilence 
a reminder daily that 
he is in control 
in the long run 
he will win 
any red mark 
or a lump 
and Death 
chuckles in your ear 
any sharp pain 
or labored breathing 
and he whistles 
from your lungs 
a close call 
the squeal of brakes 
and he's in your 
rear view mirror 
waving like a fiend 
he stands in the dark 
while you sleep 
lest you dream of falling 
and actually hit the ground 
he will catch you 
in his dark earth arms 
and enfold you there 
forevermore 
he has taken so many 
from me and he 
is always 
a burgular of souls 
I cherish 
some are on his list 
right now 
others just passed 
I would kill death 
oh so slowly 
rotting his flesh 
in a cancer ward 
while burning small 
parts of his body 
with his testicles in a vice 
and closing it 1/8 th 
of an inch each day 
filling his mouth with worms 
oh. to have the ability 
to murder death 
to reverse the process 
he is behind me now 
reading over my shoulder 
if he taps me I'm a goner 
screw him I'm typing 
and I will go when I'm damned good
and ready to so take that Dea................................................................................. .............................................................................. .......................arrrgghhhhhh!!!!!!!!!

"To make a jest of death is
to embrace life to the fullest
thus we climb mountains j
jaywalk...smoke and dare
to take risks that could kill.......
