A touch extended, throughout the ages
A soft reminder of all life stages
Mutant cells. I step away
Speed & power. Sudden stops. I step away

I see him chase, glimpse a face
Snarling back, max bad grace
Beer & fights. I step away
No health & safety here. I step away

From field to field, hill & dale.
A face in shops, offices, film & mail
Constant chase. I step away

What will it be. What brings the knell?
Cells divided? A broken heart?
No one knows which rings the bell

I glimpsed him close. I step away
Grimm. Thanatos. Azrael & Smert
I see you now. I step away

Not today Pal. I step away
Written in a Liverpool Hospital Acute Coronary Care Ward.

I will get out. Not today, Grim Reaper, I Step Away from your reach!
