twenty and 5 by Morgan D Hafeleso they tell me
on this the 17th of december
i was born... 25 years ago.
a milestone if nothing else
as i figured i'd be dead
earlier if not now...
funny how all of this nonsense
works its head inbetween legs
that didn't spread on their own...
and her legs spread like butter
on a sunny sunday afternoon
with no breeze to cool down.
i am 25 today...
and i don't feel damn near
the age i'm supposed to be. 12/18/2006 Author's Note: happy freaking birthday morg... no one else wished it to you... eh... at least the cost of car insurance will go down...
yay...
and i swear, this is not self pity... even if it looks that way...
