These poems are for posterity (because mind-loss runs in the family.) I dedicate all this poetry to my progeny, but most importantly, to the one and only Future Me. That old guy who's worn out and world-weary. The one who's losing his memories, and can't keep track of what he thinks.
These are all for you.
I'll record the lowest lows and highest highs. Presented for the perusal of his (yours, my) rheumy eyes. I might embellish at times - I might even lie. I just want to be able to look back and realize: It's been an incredible life.
