Life took the life of a poet Decades before death came-- Life took the life of a poet A king at night A Slave at dawn Hours before birds He wakes Trading his time To earn a dime Life took the life of a poet Asked about his poem and pet Life got serious he laments Life took the life of a poet Though we barely see him live We all attended his funeral Many times before death came

Two sides of a coin
Life took the life of a poet Decades before death came-- Life took the life of a poet A king at night A Slave at dawn Hours before birds He wakes Trading his time To earn a dime Life took the life of a poet Asked about his poem and pet Life got serious he laments Life took the life of a poet Though we barely see him live We all attended his funeral Many times before death came
