Delayed Pulse of a Curse

You never know you may possess the eternity gene the one that morphed from mundane into miracle. It would seem wonderful... at first you'd become a star you tube phenom a best seller everybody screaming for an autograph a touch of your polyester robe the envy of the universe.... delayed pulse of a curse You've outlived a million wives 10 million houses 100 million friends chained to a chain of your children's funerals a million sorrows that never end. You've outlived your favorite constellation and no longer look at the darkening sky- you are blind,,,to the possibility of ever meeting God you pray for the blessing of a death. never to come you'd eventually be pitied as a freak treated as a leper to be avoided at all costs chained to life for eternity a never-ending cosmic flaw.
