My Poorest Me Pity Party Pout
With the song, "I Did It My Way" playing in the background.
Damn. It
is almost ov
er.
Seven
decades........................Failed my families, failed the
Loves of My Life. And sorriest of all,
failed my children. (the proof
of which.........one of them,
my little girl,
has been DEAD 2 1/2 years now.
Granted. the world is fulla millions mo'fucked up than i can imagine, (and I have much empathy.......for most of'em).
And yes. My brothers and sisters have been great "gifts and blessings to me in hard times", but,
What can ye do? There comes a time when you've not
felt the the bare, basic love of a woman for so bloody
long, and
your remaining child is 3000 miles away, and
up to his neck trying to make This Life
tenable
for my beautiful grand-daughter that,( given
the chronic, Failing heart i've inherited), I may
never again get to see in real-life, as opposed
to "virtual" Life on a screen.
ALL we think we have and ,
we think we "have" done, ALL is sentient and
forever "passing" away.
So.......maybe cut
the old cripple a little slack. I tried to
"be good" to all i've met,
and "give of my-self".
(PS....At this stage of life, while it does hurt, there's nothing here to be "taken seriously". The REAL trouble comes when taken seriously).
"Pity party,
pity party,
Danny's having a pity party!"..........Y'all cmon down. Don't miss the fun!
