If I Never
Thursday, November 3, 2016
This remarkable poem was written by one of our residents who prefers to remain anonymous.
If I Never
Wash my sheets
or get new ones
Learn to cook
Bake bread again
Eat right
stop smoking
lose weight
Learn to shop
go in stores
get my mail
Get another car
Get out of the city
Keep the house clean
Learn physics
Understand chem
Know bio, genetics, evolution,
molecular biology
Write a book
Travel
Do laundry
Know Everything
I will still BE OK
give up cokes
Read everything ever written
Sing well
Dance again
Get done with therapy
Feel like I’m worth something
Have an intimate relationship
Have friends
Have kids
Have pets
Have a house
yard
pool
stables
tennis courts
etc
private jet
family
money
good looks
fame
I will still be OK
Fix the world
Cure disease
Create whirled peas
Make everybody happy
Learn every language
I will still be OK
