A Life Worth Living

A lesson from a full life

Having seen all sizes and shapes

All manner of personalities

Given my loyalty to mice and apes

Resigned my soul to freaks and oddities

Travelled the 12 circles of hell

And made friends in every one

They sure had a story to tell

Heaven wouldn’t have been as fun

At the end of the road

Turned out disappointing

The journey was fun

But the finish had no meaning

The ending credits rolled

Sat there looking at the cast

Wish somebody had foretold

What was wrong in my past

Didn’t recognize a single one

From the hero to the performers

Maybe a life well done

Is a life with loved ones in your corner

So take my advice

Don’t be a victim

It’s ok, a little vice

But balanced with wisdom
