Let Us Celebrate Death!
This is the modern age
And Life is so passé
That death is what is left, clearly Left,
And so needing to be celebrated
In every child killed, foe assassinated
And human made infertile
In the depths of their confusion and delusion.
What is there that death can hope to conquer?
Not happiness, because even the deadly
Are often happy - celebrating death,
But joy, which is a fulfillment
In something that transcends death,
And the simplest word for that is
Life.
