Death the omnipotent prowler; feared by so many but not by me!

By Stanley Collymore

You’re self-evidently the sole
arbitrator and likewise the
ultimate destroyer of life;
situations that unequivocally you
literally choose not to ever share
with anyone, naturally creating a
a most obvious unchallengeable
monopoly over each living thing
and irrefutably everybody. Fine!
Since, that’s readily understood
and crucially accepted by every
human being, with a genuinely
functioning brain in their head
that although undeniably alive
now one day literally certainly,
they will quite unquestionably
be personally stone cold dead.
Obviously all the same though
from my discernibly individual
perspective none of this really
matters, as very bluntly I truly
didn’t request to be here, and
literally don’t really care, what
expiry date that you’ve clearly
very arbitrarily chosen for me.

Author's Remarks:

Enforcedly born British the cultural motivation and moral ethos that have unquestionably and commitedly, from the outset of my life and still devotedly and ongoingly determine how I ethically, logically, sensibly and intelligently regulate my everyday life are distinctly and will forever always be considerably and naturally Barbadian influenced. 

A unique cultural and exquisitely caring upbringing that has taught and permanently instilled in me not to fear, or least so cowardly be cowed by anyone  or anything, and that distinctively includes Death, which is obviously inevitable anyway. 

So why waste valuable time, vital energy and the likely prospect of a worthy life on something that one cannot, even in the most minimal fashion, change!
