Death be common for the rat in the trap.

Death be common for the soldier with a broken bootstrap.

Death be common for predator and prey.

Death be common in a world of decay.

 

The price of your life is not without a tag,

Our bodies and spirit are not meant to drag.

 

If there ever a moment, when you must decide,

“And damned be him that first cries ‘Hold! Enough!’

Human is the moment, eternal is the seraph.  

 

Prompt 12, Hour 12

Halfway point.
