If I possess a living soul
Let it fill my life's frugal bowl:
And mix elixirs' grand design,
To give me peace before my time:
Give me intellect to inspire,
To always be one to admire,
And if my breath will breathe for naught,
'Ere the cause of death; a love clot.

What better way to go, eh?

You sure are writing some good stuff!
But then-again, you've had a lot of
experiential practice. Yeah?

Excellent, my friend!!

Thanks, JL, for your kind words. I've been thinking my poems have been kinda lackluster later, so thanks for the ego boost.
