people cover the spectrum on encounters with death
from those defiant who fight to last precious breath
through to those happy to pass on after a good long life
through to those happy to escape disease and pain
to poor lost souls who run to death from unbearable
lives to attempt desperate illusion escape suicide;
death will always be a topic plaguing thought about
written about a lot hopefully as it is the thing last
I will do in this life I hope to encounter stage exit death
in peace acceptance after completing a good life journey
