any of her/his friends could come close to comparing,
a time of 
frustrating
hiccup-fart
orgasms.

each time s/he was getting towards that final punch of that final round

A revolving door of visiting friends
 Old and new, at the hospital, day by day.
     Stalked by death's brooding shadow;
      Cancer-stricken and terminally ill,
   Yet faces his mortality with courage.

Today I crossed a milestone in a most eventful life
Fourscore years of wonder in a world awash in strife
I’ve kept a sense of humor in the face of utter gloom
Honored my commitments, married an incredible wife.
I’ve lived through awful wars and horrible pandemics
Frightening social upheavals...

It's been a good run
To the back side of sixty,
The short side of time.

First Hollywood kiss
Behind a pink crepe myrtle.
Thanks, Patsy Werner.

High school was okay.
Didn't help me to focus;
So, my mind wandered.

Surfed Bonzai Pipeline,
Big waves break into lava.
What made me do it?

Vietnam jungles.
I wondered why...

My friends have always hated Valentine's Day.
They ridiculed the pimply-faced boys
Whose hormone-infused offerings
Smell of Axe cologne and sweaty palms.

Greater the mocking of pubescent princesses
Who prance and twirl and collect tokens
From admirers like shells on a beach, oooing and aahing
Over anything shiny or colorful.

I have always...

Rest in peace little Moses, 
your job here is done.
In birdie years 
you had a good run.

Fly up to the heavens, 
free and with joy.
I'll miss your sweet song
my lovely, wee boy.

A joy you had been 
for many a year
and I'll miss you my friend,

“A Man’s best friend is his dog” 

The phrase receives little refute 
Anecdotal history alone settles any dispute
but he’s just a dog all he needs to be is cute

Trustworthy loyal and dyeing to please           ...

My wife has been asking for a divorce
I'm thinking this time that she is right
It's been a long time in the making
And I know I've put up a good fight

All the time that we've spent together
Must now come to an end
It's true it's you that...

You cannot know my heart,
or what you've put it through.
You ran away with hers,
Now I'm running away from you.

So don't you dare come back here,
knocking at my door.
What is it that...

We have had a good run,
peerless under the sun,
sired the likes of Einstein, 
Da Vinci and Beethoven,
though such genius is lost
on the bear and the pelican. 

But perhaps our greatest gift 
to this our common home, 
is not the civics of Rome,  
nor the...

My life is over
My time has come
And I have had a pretty good run
with no expectation of reincarnation
Heavenly bliss or eternal damnation
I leave the world with no regrets
Perfectly willing to take all bets
With no crying or hysterical laughter
Certain there is no ever after...

run boy run
It’s all in good fun
Stealing old Hickory’s gun
Watch out for that hole

jump boy jump
over the hump
land with a thump
and drop the gun

shout boy shout
real loud out
your such a lout
the gun went off

bang went the gun
it’s all in good fun
we had a good run

You are a sadistially
 twisted
A 5 star strategist 
Utilizing 
psychological
warfare
Methodically 
weaving your
weapons of
mass destruction
An artillery that
penetrated my psyche 
Leaving me confused 
by your stealth 
and deception 
Maneuvering me
into believing
that I was nothing
Poisoning my mind
with your strong
defense position
You are a trained
artillery in the use 
of suprise
Your...
