Who will not die?

Who will not die?


The rich will die
The poor will die
The king will die
The slave will die
The murderer will die
The victim will die
The falcon will die
The hunter will die
The gunsmith will die

Who will not die?

The man will die
The woman will die
The child will die
The young man will die
The old man will die
The fetus will die
The maggot will die
The butterfly will die
The lizard will die
The frog will die

Who will not die?

The saint will die
The sinner will die
The priest will die
The parishioner will die
The judge will die
The prisoner will die
The soldier will die
The assassin will die
The conjurer will die
The sacrificial will die
The sacrificer will die

Who will not die?

The musician will die
The dancer will die
The innocent will die
The guilty will die
The harbinger will die
The crop will die
The forest will die
The ant will die
The elephant will die

Who will not die?

The palace will die
The hovel will die
The village will die
The city will die
The lineage will die
The kingdom will die
The empire will die

Who will not die?

Death will not die
Laughter will not die
Charity will not die
Faith will not die
Pain will not die
Struggle will not die
Liberation will not die

Memories will not die.

Memories of who you were
Memories of who you touched
Memories of smiles brought
Memories of laughter taken
Memories of widows fed
Memories of hope.

Memories will not die.
