Question
Shakeepuddn
Line of sight through sightless eyes
Shows end unseen by these.
The die is cast along the mast
Whilst sailing on a breeze.
This neck seems frail and prone to hurt,
But such so far from truth.
Snap the neck and nothing breaks . . .
But life within the use.
Base machines rotate in time
Churning out a wave.
Death awaits that soul who takes
The present, past the stave.
