The floor below me shuddered as I smiled and looked up toward the starry sky. I used to think the future was up there amongst the stars. But now they are the glittering constants guiding my thoughts and reflections as this hull below me tilts and shudders as she plunges into the deep excstatic oblivion below. People are generally panicked, I think. I'm just grinning; death is inevitable, who can stop it? My feet were tempted to slide with the grain as the loving home turned further and further on end. But I hold steadfast in my position. If this place is going to hell it's not my fault and it's not my problem. It will be a nice change; the dang thing never could float anyway. The second in command told me she wanted to outdo the last cruise that crossed these waters. She broke up too, and now she's down there somewhere. oh well, you messed it up it's hell, but then so is life I watched as bodies tore past The kids stood there taking one last shot, one last puff of the stuff knowing it would be their last. "If history is to change, let it change. If the world is to be destroyed, so be it. If my fate is to die, I must simply laugh" |

I believe we are given but one life, we get one shot, one chance. Death is no better or no worse. Live each day as if its your last. Zall |
