On Death

 

THE ONLY THING THAT IS UNFORGETTABLE IS DEATH
 
going out
like a drop of water
through the universe
 
all is shed
and left behind
the trip has started
blind to time
 
as metamorphose change to bits
the weakened structure by its wits
and sends death's energy flying past
as the one
that seeks
the last
 
frightful in its turbulence
beauty in its permanence
terrible conversion
that takes us to the sea
 
THE DRIVER'S SEAT IS AT THE EDGE OF DEATH
 
you might not know it
but sure it's true
death might come
and visit you
at any moment
in any place
and send you flying off
into space
 
so do be ready
make your peace
with each and every man
you meet
 
you'd be surprised
that you may see him
in a place
they call
 
eternity
