Life's Expectancy
Life, full of one's expectations
Edge to which one thrives survival
In our minds, we are taught mortality
A way of life, sense into the beyond journey
Path to which desire rules emotions
To love another, goal of dream's reality
We all expect to live right old age
Many dying even early days we shovel

New Year's Kiss
Every year since she was ten
She dreamed of the day
She’d be old enough
To count down to ten
And share a kiss into the new year.
Her first time away from family
And hope is a warmth in her chest.
Will this finally be the day
She goes into the new year
With her dream fulfilled?
On the couch with credits rolling,
The

Life Expectancy
>center>LIFE EXPECTANCY
Every time you have sex, so the experts say,
You shorten your life by ten minutes.
I used to think it was worth the risk;
There was probably nothing in it.
But now I’m old and the end is in sight,
I don’t even kiss, just in case they’re right.

Life Expectancy of An Egg
Life Expectancy Of An Egg
(An Oval Precaution)
Three minute eggs are soft
Hard boiled takes longer
Scrambled seem unjustly beaten
Fried is better on the flip
Sunny side ups are cracked up
All smiles in yellow and white

Expectancy
Another day with those from past
Another look
Another word
Take an image
Become another.
It's not you they want
You don't fit the bill.
Without a payment they desire possession
Ownership comes at a cost to others
But at no cost to the possessor.
Thoughts and impressions based on desires
Desires born out of images planted
Truth has been corrupted
Reality is no more
A dream has replaced

Life Expectancy
Second, minute, hour, day, month, year
Our life is rounding here
Just a watch shows us
Time passes,
Our figure tells us
Life passes,
Our generations wait
For the moment,
Our expectancy finishes, therefore,
One day all will see we are no more.

Expectancy: the Metamorphosis
in need, in need of more personality, just an overlooked rose garden, hidden by dirty snow, looking at other roses, regrets of blossoming many liteyears ago, my need revealed its face to me while savagely slashing mine, just moments ago, personality and all other distinctions withered away just moments ago, oblivious to the fact that

Expectancy
A mind erodes
Each day more,
Further down roads
Never been before.
A heart explodes
Early one morning,
Before life corrodes,
Left without warning.
There’s no choice
How we go.
Remember to rejoice,
You never know.

Expectancy
the push to be
productive,
the measurement of
oneself by standards set up
prior to the obligatory feeling
making one do so,
the absence of
patting on the back
(replaced with the constant
beating---pick a tool of
self-abuse),
the will to be what others
want for a quicker way to the
top,
the destruction of what had been
happiness for the possibility of
security &
safety---
all in the name of
