"Ichigo, what's the difference between a King and his horse? I don't mean kiddy s*** like 'One's a person and one's an animal' or 'One has two legs and one has four'. If their form, ability, and power were exactly the same, why is it that one becomes the King and controls the battle, while the other becomes the horse and carries the King?! There's only one answer; INSTINCT!" ~ Ichigo's Inner Hollow from the anime/manga 'Bleach' by Tite Kubo


Every day we have is just a lucky chance.
It is a time where we could have just one last dance.
For just a moment, think with me of all we have done,
whether it's going to war or simply talking on the phone.
Everything we have done is just mere luck of the draw.
If you look at what I am saying, you will see that this fact is rather raw.
If you could, would you replace your hand of life
or, perhaps, you are just too scared that you might get a knife?
What decides the way we stop living?
It is decided by nothing more than where the spinners stops spinning.

I liked this poem. Very eye opening.
