*Please accept my gratitude,
for your gracious attendance.
We have gathered here today to say farewell.
He lived a life of discretion,
prudence,
restraint.
Cupidity locked in a vaulted lair.
The malignant highway of adventure:
Such a dangerous stretch of road,
and one surely to be avoided…
at all costs.
And as I look amongst you,
I would like to say I am proud…
But alas, I am not.
For ‘he’…
Is me.
Listen my loved ones,
and take heed my dear friends;
forget how I tried to preach.
Erase the fear from your mind,
because walking in safe men’s shoes,
will almost certainly,
end in…
regret.*
