AWEN ONLINE ISSUE TEN: LIFE AND DEATH
|
It was not such a
bad thing, dying; but being
alive was better! By David Edwards
On The Dole
By DJ Tyrer
No matter what you do No matter how little you claim You are a feckless scrounger Whom no-one wants to hire And no worth to your name
Life
By Aeronwy Dafies
A joyous swirl of beauty and energy Frenetic, energetic Lasting moments or centuries Each species unique, each life unique Meaning unclear, yet life is so dear Joining in that dance of endless chance |
The Problem With Susan
By DJ Tyrer
The Problem with Susan Is that she is in denial : She pretends there is no Narnia If only for a little while.
Death Haiku
By Aeronwy Dafies
Mourn not what must be Death is in the tapestry Just as winter is
Life & Death
By DS Davidson
From the very moment you first draw breath You find yourself ever stalked by death For life is never full of ease For life is a terminal disease |
Life's daily traumas inflict tiny injuries upon us, with the cumulative effect of these wounds being death.
It is not disease nor diet nor depravity that leads to death, but life.
David Edwards
