Life's Henchman

Through the magnifying lips, About all, even if illusions, "I have had a few than what is due for dreams, And lived most of them true..." "I have had my fair share of nightmares, all which unscathed, I stumped through..." All mere hallucinations. "...I have slept through insomnia And walked all day in coma," Figments of a drunken mind Driven by a cluster of self-serving emotions. Filled with only wishes of dying once in a life time; Everyone knows the angel of death is a fair man! Except from the brown tale by life's henchman About how it has nary complexion, and nay it is human.
