King Death

There is no place to hide,He`s a king we have to face,
Whether pretty or ugly ,He remains the same,
He`s fearless but meek;young and old he will embrace,
Loved by aged, riches and pride he will put to shame.

What you said about me living past 100, I am not sure I would want to, with the way the world is going today. But seriously, I wonder if they will come up with stuff to make us live that long, all of us. I hope it might be a "brave new world!!"
