A Fairer Master (a sequel to "A Cruel Mistress")
If life is a cruel, ruthless bitch,
Then tell me what is death, her mate?
How does he contrast to her
With his lesser amount of spite and hate
Death is a gentler master than she
A gracious Dark Lord to her tortured souls
He sprawls whores in dark alleys
He ends the addicts drug-filled holes
He hangs the necks of the ones
Who lost their will to laugh and live
He bleeds lifeblood from slit wrists
He sharpens the inmates rusty shiv
Bullets fly straighter to their target
Quick death eases a life's pain
The sadistic mistress fills with outrage
At death ending her silly little game
Life and death are dysfunctional mates
At odds with each others play toys
Death is a more just, gentle fate
Life just drags pain on and on
Hell is a home to many dark fates
Heaven for the holy in their god
Death does not discriminate
Martyrs, suicidals, murder victims, all
The ugly, the beautiful, the rich, the poor
One by one, each man and woman falls
Life is a more biased judging bitch
She treats some with favoritism
Death is a more fair and just master
In total contrast to life's cruel sadism
