We justify retrieve as value to years emerging, That beyond this day's history we will refrain. Our subconscious is active with incessant urging, For it realizes we shan't pass this way again. Life, like a Maitre d', usually delivers what we order; But unlike the meal we pay for life after we exit. Tom
