It's Funny, Isn'T It
"IT'S FUNNY, ISN'T IT?"
we all hope for change at
some point in our lives and
when we get it, it usually
comes when we don’t want
it.
eventually the mouths dry up,
life continues and everything
that once was, is
gone.
when we’re younger, it keeps
us looking ahead.
when we’re older, it pushes
us towards something else to
take the place of something
else.
change breeds more change.
remorse, adaptation and ex-
citement are the
children.
we all have a sickness that
ruins other sicknesses.
the easiest way to deal with
your own is to find someone
that has a sickness far worse
than
you.
most people feel sorry for me.
they play on changes that re-
define who I am.
I feel sorry for people.
they live in the change they
create.
for me, it’s quite simple:
everything is
temporary.
love, life, even
death.
change will bring all of
these.
change will destroy all of
these.
my change brought what has
kept me alive all these years.
grab 13 minutes for yourself
and motion the waiter for
another
drink.
the next 13 will be
magical.
