been a daze for some days
feels like a dream but it ain't
dreaming's to easy I've been
too busy fumbling & thumbing
tearing through stuff looking
for some things I think I need
hope I find in time to do what
I plan to so long ago to meet
a goal once deferred now I'm
on the verge to get it done
as if a fires been lit under me
pushed to the edge so many
times why I never fell was a
mystery though I been close
deep by the skin of my teeth
flying by the seat of my pants
still not quite into the light
I see the lines drawn by time
every time I look in the mirror
don't need no filter I'm
aging never thought I would
live this long I know I'm not
meant to be here every time
I say that the less I fear
ready for what ever comes
what will come sure to come
only getting wiser taking me
higher walking live wire
glad to be retired from
putting out fires
