The Time is Now

I seen one today, that’s how you know.

I looked down at my feet, knowing they wouldn’t keep me standing up much longer.

And later, I’d be laying down in a casket, 6 feet deep.


Didn’t let that stop me from jumping on into a pool of water 6 feet deeper.

I can’t swim.

But I figured if it was truly my time, might as well go out on a whim.


I grew impatient as I began to float.

But one second later, I was in a place called home.
