THE REAPER

It's a little dark.


THE REAPER

 

Silent I travel

In darkness or light

I move with no shadow

I feed on your fright

 

I come at His bidding

Despite my dark deeds

I take what is owed

From all fertilized seeds

 

I'll make you immortal

With my special skill

You'll dodge my great purpose

But I've a quota to fill

 

I am the collector

Of all debts past due

I bring in the harvest

But no crops you grew

 

Cold is my touch

Fast is my blade

I'll send you to heaven

Or hell's fiery glade

 

For I am The Reaper

And we have a date

Have not a worry

I'll not be late

Love the lyrical flow of your poem! This one is dark, but a most enjoyable read. The Reaper does indeed come for all of us sooner or later.
