Universal Rule

It's true for everyone!

Right now even as I write this
The world is working
To get me my rewards
To hand me my failures
The awards that’d glorify me
Are coming together in heaven
The insults that’d damn me
Are burning in hell
My future lovers are being born or bred
Future enemies sharpening their knives
Bridges being built that I’d cross
Rivers gathering the tide that I’d swim
Gods I’d pray to
Devils I’d bow to
Condoms I’d wear
Children I’d have
The seed had been sown
The plant germinated
The tree grown
The wood carved out
The nails driven in
For that coffin with
My name on it
I’m dying by the second 
To keep my date.
