Everyone's so busy dying slowly-
(Though some die quickly) -
So who needs...
War?
Disease?
Starvation?
You begin to die at birth
I just reap
But you may reap life-
So harvest while you can
It does end in the permanence of death and it can be tempting to just acquiesce. But, with the rarity of life, one must always reap. Nicely said my friend
Yes, one must always reap life... let Death reap death. Thank you for your wise comment.

Very wise. Sometimes we learn this piece of wisdom a little late in our lives, but even so we can relish the time we and our loved ones have left. I'm not sure why such intelligent creatures as we are seem to miss the obvious- we are born therefore we live therefore we die- - since death invariably comes with the territory, we should Live with a capital L while we may for Pete's sake.
