Followed Through Life By Death

 Death is behind us
from the moment we are born
an unwanted friend
a feared companion
an inspiration
or a stagnation
We all look over our shoulders
hoping we see nothing
or at the very least
see nothing close
Never falters
never changes speed
always steady

So why is it
with my family
every April
Death learns to run
