Cycle of Life

They fight like two dogs after a female. A cat and another cat for food, birds. Becomes fodder for the Red Fox to pull Feathers and chow down. Once half dead, I put in can. Go to heavenly sleepness. Leo got sick in new home, on to heaven. Val - heart defect, needle shot. Gone. And so on it goes, Caesar smoke. Slept. Cremate, bury. Rise up to the gold gate. I want to burn and sit on a white mantle. Larry wants burn with ashes over Rockies. Brother, mothers, father and grandparents, Into ground, after productive life. Sleep. Crops in the ground for all animals to eat. Slaughter some. Feeds primates. Sweet meat. So on and on it goes, in the cycle of life.
