(Aho. Hear my prayer!)
Today is a good day to die
No matter what's happening or going on in the sky
Every day is a good day to die
No matter what we think of it. You and I.
One day we are all going to die
No matter. Even if we choose to close our eyes
So make Today a good day to die
And may thy Spirit be ready for the journey and flight

Inspired by my Native American spirituality.
