Poem

The elements, life, struggle, friction, adversity.

Perseverance, determination, fearlessness, carelessness.

I am in the ship of life, navigating, and the wind calls my name and I feel the current.

I am no one you haven't met before, nor said something you haven't heard before.

I am signature of the time on this planet cast since 1963 and still ticking.

My ailments aren't something new from those felt by others.

I tend to move on without second guesses or regrets. 

I'm ready for the consequences of any errant decisions.

The road is full of forks, choices, options. I am one too.

Inspiration.
