An interview with Mr Death I felt (and smelt) his icy breath He told me I was qualified As his skeleton shook and sighed He told me given half a chance I could soon promote, advance He said my work would be secure That the job's a sinecure Then, after talking for a while, He gave me a toothy smile I was unphased, was not yet dead I knew my fate, I used my head So I spoke, here's what I said; "You've been comin' 'round my door Promotin' for your stinking store But I'm NOT scared. Ain't buyin' any Wouldn't take it for a penny! I don't have appreciation I filled out no application... Just go back to the grave beneath You got no stinger, got no teeth You can't have my bloomin' life! I belong to Jesus Christ. So you won't make me cry or beg, Turn your face and shake a leg! Death rattled in his tattered skirts My parting shot? **"GO BUY SOME CERTS!"** Thus ended the interview I'm no longer broken, blue. Yes, I have more work to do If he comes to bother *you Flush* the ****** DOWN THE LOO!!! SoulSurvivor (C) 11/17/2015

I was in a blue funk the last couple of days. MUCH better now. Sorry I haven't been reading. I have SO much going on Plus depression over circumstances. Thank you all for bearing with me!
