Mar 2016
Torment and sorrow fall from the sky
Lucky for me I don't want to stay dry
They say when it rains it pours
So I will ride this tidal wave and soar
Till I'm above these cumulonimbus'
That mock me from their Mt. Olympus
And prove myself worthy of a throne of my own
But once offered, I'll happily reject
Because one thing this mortal coil is proud to neglect
Is the mentality
That follows THAT immortality
For true immortality is not to never die
But to have my name written by scribes
Until our pens are out of ink
And our minds become in sync
With all others
Our siblings, fathers, and mothers
Will remember the deeds
Of this modern day Theogenes
