The Living Hell of Joy Each Day I Chase

Nothing surprises me anymore.

Life, death, time, blood,

sexual perversity, incest,

chopping off heads, new billionaires,

political rigging, chicanery,

lies, cheats, celebrations extreme

overboard ego, new dictators,

Soon breakthroughs in heart, stroke, cancer,

Yet always surprises

A screen of life theater in motion

3 dimensional TV, honorarium for overpaid doctors,

abundance of drug choices, forget not,

overdose comes…, up your nose

Rocket ships to cities

Self-driving cars and trips to Mars

Tease out beyond imagination

Super world relax at but one station

Life of surplus, yet the wound will heal

Love surprises, good love again to feel

Collect too many gadgets, things

World of paupers, us and kings

As world powers disagree -

War planes, armies.

So life is too exciting.

I’m cautiously inviting.

Greenland glaciers melt.

Water level up in oceans felt.

What the hell is global warming?

I rejoice in my storming!

You see, I’m over 90, not encumbered

Yet my days are numbered.

All this a maze

The living hell each day I joyful chase

A smile, a laugh, a chuckle

Under the negative I do not buckle

Festivities, good food

Keep in jolly healthy mood
