Seek Thy Death

First take a life
with a wife like thine
then take a knife
to end that life in time.

Mear rapid flick blade
instant end cut rage
swift resident blood
signals flick end rip age.

Soul doth slide
cannot abide
alongside beating heart.

Torn asunder
plunging under
doth crimson feed hunger; part?

Mear flick of blade
instant end of rage
swift resident blood
signals flick end of age.
