Splendid use of the vernacular to put Death in his place. One has to speak to him sharply on occasion to keep him at bay. He has a way of creeping into poems and pictures - memento mori and all that...

interesting poem however I am not sure we will have a lot of power to stop death when it comes for us. I really would not want to do anything to change it for me. I have lived a long life and am getting tired, but I am ready to go to my Heavenly home that has been promised to me. Blessings, patricia

Thanks, Patricia.
This is more a suggestion of not giving up on life too easily.
