The Life of David Gale

We spend our whole life
trying
to stop death.
Eating,
inventing,
loving, praying, fighting,
killing.
But what do we really
know
about death? Just that
nobody comes
back.
Then there comes a point,
a moment,
in life when your
mind
outlives
its desires, its obsessions.
When your habits
survive your dreams
and when your losses...
Maybe death is a
gift.
You wonder.
