It would seem even Death has a multifaceted personality. It’s interesting to see the differing perspectives, almost as if the character is describing himself the way he knows others think of him, whilst inserting observations about the observers.
On a formal note, this poem’s rhythm is quite complex. Would you consider this free verse, or is there a specific rhythm with which it is meant to be read?

Completely free verse, also known as ’I’m tired and not thinking this through really well’ verse.

Anything in his perspective is always fascinating for me. As a character Death will always have the best stories to read I think.
