Life Versus Death

Life Versus Death

A Poem by KAREN
"

Life and death!

"
 
        

Life is a function
Obligation overload
Survival a must
Obstacles steal directions
How will we ever survive?

Death cannot be stopped
Sickness can confiscate lives
steals breath from a heart
Preparation should start now
God is coming back some day

Hello, Karen! :)
This was an interesting read. "Obligation overload" is a great description for life, captures the absurdity of struggling. Thanks for sharing!

Sickness confiscating lives. That's some heavy stuff! You should mention in the notes this is a Somanka. And who wrote what when which one of you two flew first. Or something like that. I take it the answer to the question is God?

"Preparation should start now..." Well, I suppose there is wisdom in this. I find it better better to just live one day at a time. Tomorrow is not a given. Well written.
