[suidinguilelf]

My rhyme of the day:

My blood's still flowing through veins pumped by a heart
Don't know when it'll stop

but I know when it did start
When two secret ingredients shared by the many
Merged to create me and add my soul to

the plenty
I'm nineteen now, luck might have me reach twenty
Twenty-one seems iffy, maybe if I pick up a

penny
My superstitious side will take over my logic
And my mortality will become an insignificant topic
But the

angel begs me to listen and tells me to stop it
So my essence can soar and ascend like a rocket
But the demon

tempts me with details of riches
I can accumulate some before I wind up in the ditches
And I'm falling and the

bright light seems so far away
Where am I now? In this place there is no night or day
Only an infinite number,

pits and canyons of hellfire
The heat is unbearable yet I don't perspire
Situation looks so familiar that my

chest starts heaving
It was just like this when it was air I was breathing...
