18 Lives


I have lived for 18 years.
I have lived 18 lives.
You can divide that into 2 cats
Or into 3 half dozens.
I think 18 is an ok number
I wish I could leave it at that.
My next life will be a morbid one
Worse than any life before.
There is nothing I can do
But hope to die before then.
So I don't wear a seat belt
And I never use medicine as directed.
I figure every future life will be
Worse than the life before it.
Just as my lives have gone
Downhill since number 10.
But at least I am consistant.
I have written 18 lines.
