I think of death

```

I think of death

Not because

I am afraid of death.

I meditate on death

Not because

I am afraid of death.

I love death

Not because

I am afraid of death.

I think of death

Because

Death needs my smile.

I meditate on death

Because

Death needs my life.

I love death

Because

Death at least,

And none else,

Acknowledges my heights.
