deferral
you'll do it, what you really want.
you'll start counting, you'll
feel everything direct as rain
on your skin in mild May twilight.
you'll start chewing every moment
like fresh corn on the cob hot
buttered and actually enjoying it.
as soon as you grow up, leave home,
after you've got your diploma,
when you've passed your orals,
when you finish psychoanalysis,
as soon as you meet the one woman for you,
when mr.right comes charging along,
after you pay off your mortgage,
as soon as the children are in school,
when you finally get the divorce,
after the children finish college,
when you're promoted as you deserve,
when you're a complete success at last,
after you retire to florida,
when you die and go to heaven.
you'll have considerable practice
at being dead by then
you'll do it, what you really want.
