some folks said life begins at 30.

& some folks said never trust anyone over 30.

Now, some folks say life begins at conception.

& some folks say life begins at first breath.

Life on this planet has always been a bit confusing for me.

I ask myself who's the boss of me.

& I find there's no end of someone trying to be.

At this point, I'm closer to the end of my life than to the beginning.

& I find that to be somewhat of a relief.

But from the time of my first memories, I have always trodden the road less traveled.

& questioned authority.

& stood up to xtian fascists.

& indeed all manner of fascists.

& no matter how many times & ways I've been abused because of that,

I've never regretted it.

YMMV.
