Alien

you may not believe it

but there are people

who go through life with

very little

friction or

distress.

they dress well, eat

well, sleep well.

they are contented with

their family

life.

they have moments of

grief

but all in all

they are undisturbed

and often feel

very good.

and when they die

it is an easy

death, usually in their

sleep.

you may not believe

it

but such people do

exist.

but I am not one of

them.

oh no, I am not one

of them,

I am not even near

to being

one of

them

but they are

there

and I am

here.
