Out Like A

How will death come to my door
Will in be in bed or the cold hard floor

Will it be the heart or soul
Heaven or hell the goal

A life of good and bad
Their weight lead clad

I see myself as one who served
But to most that's absurd

Too many I have filled their pocket 
Some to pull my eye from their socket 

At the winter of my life
What disease will end the strife

Always unwilling to accept the calm
I hope I go out like a bomb
