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.
