a disaster that took its share
had his hands on my throat,
but I managed to crawl out of there

and again, in '98
car hit by a derailed freight;
crushed my leg but I survived
though since, I never could walk straight

that last winter his touch was cold
a killer smile, he was getting bold;
I thought this time he'd come for me
but by the summer, a recovery

he gets away with all his crimes,
a dark, sadistic sort of fun
picks us off time after time;
stalks us all until he's done
a piece of us til nothing's left,
his calling card, those bereft
watch your back, my best advice
this reaping soul does not play nice.

Ah well. Enjoy it while it lasts. I feel sorry for death, he never meets people when they are at their best. I suspect it's a bit boring, and sometimes messy. He could never maintain a relationship. "what did you do today dear!", would get a tad repetitive.

Hi Spike,

Well scripted. Has the grim reaper been
stalking you again? Keep your head down,
mate!

Ya say what ya need to say to capture the moment with out sayin' what yer sayin' at all. Now that's a magnificence requirement. Ya met it. As you know,
I've tumbled through thirteen moves of life 'n' death and I watch my back fer somethin' like that smilin' like that again.
Great write, Spike
