    Friendly Foe

    Fleeting lifes no friend, 
    but two-faced taunting foe
    leading to where all who end
    seem hesitant to go
    mon ami, mon ami, mon ami
    we have met yet not completly
    though you accosted me with a smile
    and i am glad that you did greet me!
    why after a short while
    must you beguile bereave and cheat me?

    short but sweet. i like it. it rhymed very well. to me it speaks of death. the grim reaper is the friend that greets you. that is just what i got out of it. whether or not that is what you were going for i'm not sure.

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
