"Still out here in the wind and rain ... A whole lot older but I feel no pain."

Warren Zevon

Fifty-four for the love of ...

It’s that time again. Hoped I'd

Forget, but that never

Takes place. My

Youth far out in my rear view.

Fast forwarding, moving closer to the end

Of it all. As I race to that line and

Using my last breath, I

Resolve to make death laugh with me before tapping my arm and

covering me up.
