Reincarnation Revisited

A touchy subject to say the least Have certain thoughts of my own Still no matter what anyone thinks How's about we leave reincarnation alone Once is enough for this old guy A touchy subject for sure Retracing my crazy teenage years Wouldn't want those again to endure What about my very first job interview Sweating to beat the band First, middle, and even my last name Scribbled on the back of my hand No thanks, once is surely enough But if I could just change a couple of things Marry a sweet young Hollywood starlet And be able to act and sing Okay, maybe I'll change my mind I'm now all for reincarnation If I had the chance to choose who I am Love to be a great singing sensation A touchy subject to say the least Have certain thoughts of my own Still no matter what anyone thinks How's about we leave this subject alone

Enjoyed the read, Jack. It would be a hard choice to have if I knew the positives and the negatives of a second run through life. Thanks for sharing your thoughts through your poetry, my friend. Bill
