Hoping for death is a lousy way to live

Life is a given,


Death can be away driven,


Before we die we are hopefully forgiven,


To live life every day wishing for death,


I would eventually have to give in…


 


To find life after death,


That is the reason we now have breath,


Dying we may do from extended use of meth,


The brother and murderer of Osiris was Seth…


 


What must one do to live life, death to avoid?


No use should we of the deadly steroid,


Living life as we may have been taught by Freud,


When death does approach we chase it away by being overjoyed,


Our desires therein having become completely devoid…
