When my generation began dying
in recorded numbers
it required evasive action
extraneously placing the younger you
as elegant executor
to manage my private affairs
my imagined legacy
and our erstwhile estate,
although admittedly not in your best interest
like a forest flattened by a churning cyclone
on the freeway between city and university
I leave behind quite the debris field
unless of course you depart sooner
than my delusional proposal
the postscript where I succumb
so elderly yet so longingly
long after our secular devotional
intertwined unexpectedly
the jumble somehow remarkably whole
in the genial cradle of preposterous reunion.
1. I have questions relating to this post. Remind me the next time we talk...
2. Last night, I delved into ideals of hypergamy and whether or not I still had a chance.
2a. There were seemingly choices available to me when I was younger but my idealistic self invented many scenarios still available to me that superceeded any "settling" at that time.
3. Would it really be hypogamy for my unfortunate partner or would my winning personality and short lived but undying love be enough?
