People have been dropping like flies, and it's starting to get now - I keep looking at people and wondering how they're going to die, and when. It's not healthy.

the stars out for those who are yet

Liked that bit specially. It's..generous, and pulls off the reference really nicely.

Unless I've completely missed the point like the twerp I am (a fear that regularly keeps me from commenting, for what it's worth), the first one is somewhat familiar as a state, but now has me thinking about lobsters.

I do not mean, lookee at me insulting myself, I mean, *fistbop*.
Awkward comment is awkward. But present!

Yes. I really have nothing to say other than that. Poetry is definitely hard for me sometimes, because I can never really find a cadence to it, and a lot of the meaning to me is lost without a rhythm. But this was so easy to just fall in to. Absolutely gorgeous.
