Death Clocks Overtime

Sickly Snapping

Bones Crack cracking

Tumors grow like silent snow

Nana just fell asleep one night and

Never woke up

Tick Tick Tick

Death works after hours

Endless task ahead

Some pray to stay

Some pray to go

Supplicate ears dead

1234123412343

Your number’s coming up my friend

it’s coming…same as me.

Death is Clocking Overtime

Tick Tock Tock

Coughing wheezing painful breathing

Pathogen Plagued

staying? leaving?

White Knuckle living

hold on Tight

If you must depart us

slip sand-through-fingers softly…into the unknown you were born to know.
