Say Bear, what are your plans when the apocalypse arrives.

Mick, 

I just spent the last 40 minutes, 

while listening to my son 

slowly teach himself Toxicity 

on my Alvarez, trying to come 

up with an earnest reply to your question:

I went the absurdity rout...

then the straightforward route 

that included an ocean swim 

with my best gal...& a ravenous 

& pokerfaced tiger shark on the hunt ~~

to distract th’ fck our of us from the sobering 

rue culmination of mankind’s...superstitious 

& moneyed foibles; ...followed fittingly by 

a more cynical & somewhat metaphorical 

route    ...but...then...nothing rang true.

[mankind, born of womankind, & the self-worth jump for that big ticket item]

I suppose I haven’t given any thought to plans of Armageddon.  

I’ve been called a hopeful fool, bro.  Fool  for short.  

Y’get right down to it:  If I live long enough 

to see my grandchildren flourish

 in an enlightened new Renaissance 

of earth & humanity that we create in our own 

(obscured until just-in-the-nick-of-time) best images, 

...then I too will know grace...like the Moral Market Majority thinks they know grace.

~~+~~=~~~~~~~~

...but if there iz a moment to look around, 

I'd raise a glass too:  To the notion that in the end 

there’ll be memories.........ascendance to some benign light,

or another slice-off of enlightenment saught

would be a bonus ..............................................

...To take the love with me [us; each of] would be a blessing....

[ellipsis]  

...or just a good fckn thought and a clink of glass on glass

& a liberal toss down before the blast....
