what i learned last week

flies might not be deep thinkers 
but they are quick decision makers 
 
all the doors stick but the one that will not stay shut 
press your elbow into it to close it 
 
every year people fly miles to Boston  
to run 26.2 more 
 
Nietzsche was an avid walker  
& an almost optimist 
 
if i ever die i want it to be in the morning 
sunrise smiling on my face knowing  
there is no going into work today 
 
three things i will miss when old  
                a good bowel movement  
                a good sound sleep  
                a good laugh with a long dear friend
