From: Tom Kiesel	of 2095

My grandma is in the hospital right now, and while driving home my thoughts turned to the subject of death. Perhaps I'm the most morbid 17-year-old in Indiana, I don't know. Anyway, I came home and wrote this. It's unfinished, much like my own struggle with the concept my my loved ones' mortality as well as my own. Untitled The line is drawn The battle waits Death and I stand toe to toe I'm just a pawn To each our fates The final victor, I don't know To blows we come I am undone Death's power greater than my own It drinks my soul My strength to it Takes my will as its own How do I win?
