It is Often Said

It is often said,
DON'T FEAR THE REAPER
But men lie awake, nightmare
White-Horseman on the mindscape
They won't accept their intrinsic mortality

It is often said,
STREETS OF GOLD AWAIT
And the Grace of your Father
And the houri will love you
But the first step waits for you from six feet under

Lift up the veil and see your nature

Soul Reaper not Grim

And be a drop in the ocean
