Work Text:
What is the fear of death compared to the fear of age?
Those who have lived long should not fear Death.
She is a lovely lady who takes each creature's hand
Or paw, or fin, or other thing.
It is old age that's new, the great unknown,
When we know not what to do with ourselves
Year upon year upon year, growing tired.
May we all find something to do with our lives
Until she comes to meet us.
