They face it.
Some conceal it
behind the confident voices and visages,
some bury it
beneath the hoarded papers and social status,
some try to
gild it with good names:
"Future plans"
"Shopping,"
some try to
escape through many ways:
"Party vans"
"Scrolling;"
while very few
face it.
They invite it to a cafe
and conversate,
they marry it everyday
and consummate.
They jump into it
and find the wings flapping since eons,
they open to it
and find the arms extending to horizons,
and the bodies melting into life's ocean.
They touch the sky's infinity,
they taste the life's divinity,
they tease the death's immobility -
because they don't bury, conceal
or try some deal,
they face and unveil it,
because they don't race away,
they face and stay with it.
