To sequester any-day death, any day
One must perforce
Escape everyday life, every day
It is an afterthought to
A foreshadow
To leave any-day death, any day
One must perforce
Capture everyday life, every day
It is a still-life review
A moving-picture presage
To abandon any-day death, any day
One must perforce
Seize everyday life, every day
It is an auspicious portend
A fortunate telling
To relinquish any-day death, any day
One must perforce
Grasp everyday life, every day
To comprehend everyday death, any day
One must perforce
Live any-day life, every day
It is an imperative of the soul
A calling of the spirit

A letter to me as I turn 22 today
A letter to me as I turn 22 today To all the 22-year-olds in the world, this one's for you. Go out there and conquer the world, it is your age to emerge victorious as you race across life's timelines, striding in the zeal of your highest vigour. It is an obligated way of living, a mere bane of existence, to become the worthiest and most appealing object of praise, a token of appreciation that glorifies the lineage of the family and has accomplished the major milestones that are deemed to be benchmarked and embraced as laid down by our society and the ones that surround us.
