Death 3



Sentences, however hard they try,
Will always be unassuming.
Never forget the modest and retiring sentences.

Pay attention to the decease,
the decease is the most tragic modification of all.
Never forget the tragical and sad decease.

I cannot help but stop and look at the cunning disappearance.
A disappearance is artful. a disappearance is slick,
a disappearance is tricksy, however.

Just like an implacable fate, is the fatality.
Now silly is just the thing,
To get me wondering if the fatality is buffoonish.

I cannot help but stop and look at the scorching cremation.
Does the cremation make you shiver?
does it?

An end, however hard it tries,
Will always be peaceful.
Now orderly is just the thing,
To get me wondering if the end is peace-loving.
