Bucket List




you can't beat this thing
anyone who's ever thought
they did
had to sacrifice
crucial aspects
of their self
so then you can lose at it
which also sucks
is hazardous to different
aspects of your health
you can’t beat this thing
this every day living of error
this hat shoe shirt
that does not cannot
ever fit
would be nice to end
this thing though
before the final sun
sets in the final sky
over the final seas
fires drought plagues
all that biblical stuff
playing out as the credits roll
on us
good “bucket list” item
for us
maybe even then
the film reel
could break
and the theater
go dark
while we reorient
ourselves
