Death comes for us all

2025/7/21 Edited to

... Read moreDeath, a topic often avoided yet deeply felt, is a profound reality that connects us all. Writing about it through poetry allows a unique expression of ideas and emotions that prose sometimes cannot capture. I've found that sharing thoughts on mortality through verse creates a space for empathy and introspection. When contemplating the phrase 'death comes for us all,' it reminds me that despite our differences, mortality is a shared human experience. This understanding can foster compassion and appreciation for the moments we have. For anyone interested in exploring this theme further, consider reflecting on your own feelings about life's impermanence. Writing or reading poetry centered on mortality can be a therapeutic way to acknowledge fears and hopes. Ultimately, embracing the inevitability of death doesn't mean despair; rather, it can inspire a fuller, more intentional life. Through poetry and personal reflection, we can find meaning and peace in this universal truth.

I saw Death Becomes Her on Broadway
No more must I put up with vibrato-less ballads, drama reduction, lack of sparkles, and jukebox musicals. The REAL musical is back and it becomes Broadway! Death Becomes Her felt like a step back in time and a step forward all at once. I felt like I was seeing broadway for the first time in decades

When death comes for her...
She does not flee as others do, But waits beneath the ancient tree. When Death steps forth from shadowed hue, Her heart sighs out, at last, set free. No fear resides within her breast. No trembling breath, no final plea. She longs for him, his dark caress. And peace that only he can see.
