Oh, I loved my dad
he passed when he was 60
the age I will be this year
and I wonder
He was a man before his time
or he believed a certain way
He would often say to me
we'll flip a coin
heads I win tails you lose
until one day I said
that is not fair
and he said
What is man's fairest quality?
well I could not answer
Man's fairest quality is sincerity
that your word is your word
given today's standards
out of 100 sentences
2 are filled with that
I believe we are born and the
date is know before hand
and I also believe that is so in death
I do not think of death on a regular basis
but I have thought of my own mortality
and I'm seem to be be comfortable with it
when it comes, I do not feel that today
I think I will know
do I feel I'm going to die in the not
to distant future --- no
according to this thought in this moment
Am I going to die -- yup
we rise again
