REASONS TO DIE…?

Do you not fear reptiles, not having seen one,
Simply due to what you have heard?
Is something here when it might be gone,
Might not an Elephant be called a bird.
Would you not think a tree a mountain,
If that is what you had been taught,
Is not a fountain but a fountain,
Though as a gargoyle it was bought?
Does not belief come from suggestion,
From superstition and from lie,
That I must ask the question:
Why for such a thing do you to die?
