Out of Time

Planning your demise is like 
walking on a tight rope    
realizing there's no net
challenging a 
speeding car and
daring it to stop
mortgaging your manhood
amassing liabilities 
with no program of repayment
leaping to the wrong conclusions
leaning toward self-delusions
indulging in the same old self-
defeating speculations
endorsing self-destruction 
till you're finally out of time.
