When You Die



Only the evolved prize your one life.
The value of life by most is the same
as it ever was
death is the one thing not reinvented.

Most spend it in the pursuit
of nothingness
from which they will soon return
none the wiser.

God's that most speculate about
instead of enriching
the lives and lost loves, you complain of
is your life really that worthy of
some thing special
while in death it is the sum of your God's.

I tremble at the thought
of some living forever to drain
and contribute nothing.

Then sadly most have
absolutely no situational
awareness at all.
It is why the soldier's are tragically young.

So for the few whom must look
for others to follow
you are at best a knat a distraction
then you die.
It is best if you just get out,
or get to the bottom of it.
