Pick Your Poison Well

Pick Your Poison Well

A Poem by G. Anderson

Death, I can tell
you pick your poison well.
I'll bet on the day
you carried my love away
you lurked over the shelves
of the potions of Hell

And precisely chose the potion
of hacking at lungs and motion.
One single touch to his lips
with your dirty, lingering trick
deprived my love of his life,
plunging me into terrible strife.

You pick your poisons and hold
my sacred love and gold.
The gold of his love and life,
your terrible poisons, oh how they smite.
