Rocketship

They'll find it on the stairs
Politely placed it there
Been so unkind without a hint
A warning sign for them

Read my apology
Their hope of disbelief
But no denial changes things
No remedy ahead

I am not to be martyred
I am not to be worshipped
Did it not to be strong strong strong
I implicate no others in this crime

I'm off on a rocketship
Prepared for something new
I'm off on a rocketship
Ecstatic with the view

I am scared of the things upcoming
And I want for the things I don't have
Cannot stand to be one of many
I'm not what they are

- Guster

PP:
- cropped
- Strong curves adjustment
- strong USM
- hue/saturation adjustment, lowered yellow and blue, the raised master
-resized/USM again/bordered

I was kind of stuck on this one. This was not my first choice but I didn't have the things I needed to get a cool looking CSI autopsy room. ;)

Very good camera angle and composition, very fitting for the theme. The color tones also fit well with the theme. Nicely done!

Technicals: Nice composition. The DOF works well. The WB is a bit off in my eyes. Or maybe I'm looking for a different cast to be added. Lighting works.
The Feel: Does feel like Death although the title is a bit on the head-scratching side. I know what you are going for, but it seems there is a more eloquent way to put it.
Score: 6
