Death Did Become My Sad Demise

Death Did Become My Demise From God to me a message was sent, While wind had sailed through my tent; Horrors of war are always sad to see; One of them dead one day could be me. My home for me know always will await; May be early morning or in the day late; Right now is peaceful and quiet around, As is still will sit here so safe and sound. Something recently happened hard to bare; A bullet had started sailing through the air, And was filled with agony I then did realize; Death soon did seem to be my sad demise. Jim Horn

another perspective would be that society's culture makes a bigger deal out of death than it actually is (for money)...and yet at the same time tv and the movies trivilialize death to an extreme (for money)

That is why heaven and a grave have become so popular. Everyone is dying to get in or are dying trying and to open door they are prying whit material God is supplying.
