Time and gravity conspire to remind me I'm mortal and subservient to death its approach heralded by wrinkled skin, aching mussels and creaking bones, anticipating its arrival, I wonder which breath may well be my final breath. (Threesome) (01,05,2020)

Few words with a ton said. This week, I went to visit a dear friend in a home. When I went to sign in, I was told she had passed away the week before. She was sitting on the sofa and it was all over. Guess that is a great way to go. Also love your picture..............
