I’m 50 today
F*** Sake.
I’m 50 today.
Fuck sake.
Still not dead.
Seventy-six to twenty-six.
Not a ratio.
A cry for help.
What the hell am I supposed to do with that?
Feel the same?
Yeah. You probably hear that shit all the time.
Truth is, I never thought I’d make it this far.
Figured I’d be fertiliser by now.
Or at least gone out properly…
sirens, headlines, a cautionary tale.
What a waste of potential.
Instead: here we are.
Anticlimax achieved.
Round of applause.
Well done me.
Pat on the back.
Gold star.
Whatever keeps the lights on.
I won’t bore you with the life story…
you’ve got my other shit for that.
How I began, how I end:
I’m 50 today.
Fuck sake.
Still here.
Apparently.
Cheers…
to not being dead yet.
