Intimate
Specific
This portal’s for you
And you alone
It is your path
Out of this shared illusion
Into the One Light
That Eden saw play

Death is always ready
To step in
When your body
Loses its balance
You think it’s far away
But it’s always all over you
Coating you, waiting
For one little misstep

If Death is stalking you
You can’t ask for love
You have to be readying yourself
For a solo trip

If Death has marked you
You can’t start a revolution
You must say goodbye to
The world and its projects

Death’s a sleepy headed
Companion
But you still can’t
Sneak past
