Death Wears Sneakers

Death wears sneakers

Fastened tight

Leaving wounds

Wronging rights

It sneaks around

And doesn’t care

About what’s left

And what’s to share

It doesn’t knock

It barges in

To take it’s claim

To sate it’s yen

Not bound by locks

Or siren’s blare

It leaves a mess

It doesn’t care

Don’t forget

To right your soul

Keep in mind

Who’ll pay the toll
