This War Can Make a Hero

This war can make a hero from a man like that
And claim the best in nameless piles of dirt.

Death is A Friend

Death is a friend we meet when we are young, fear when we are grown, and welcome when we are old.

Death Has This Much

Death has this much to be said for it: You don’t have to get out of bed for it. Wherever you happen to be They bring it to you—free. —Kingsley Amis
