    DEATH

    With instincts
    Distinct in its' precinct
    It lies low
    Flies above
    And remains aloft
    In its power remover state
    It moves about
    To and fro it goes
    Until it finds its prey
    Rich or Poor
    Cowardly or Bold
    Master or Servant
    Lazy or Mighty
    Healthy or Sick
    Slow or Fast
    Strong or Weak
    In its physical form
    It was defeated
    In its abstract
    It was unseen
    And hovers around its prey
    Until the time is come
    The die is cast
    And the command is given
    The soul is taken
    When the line is cut
    That connects
    Life to the body
    DEATH!!!
    A tear to many
    A joy to others
    A curse to some
    A blessing in disguise
    It is to you
    What you choose it to be

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

    Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
