Sarcasm of Life

For humans, birth comes from death
Death leads to a new life
Life good or bad, it can be

Be it savory or bitter, life has an end
An end that furies some
Some see that finish as delight

Delighted is a bird feeding on ants
Ants in turn devour a dead bird
Birds and ants need to understand

Understand the irony of life 
Life comes and goes
Life comes from death
Death generates a new life
