    demise

     Watch the world as it passes
    looking through these thin clear glasses.
    I see the world as it goes,
    I feel things no one knows.
    Why is my heart so tight,
    under this flimsy sheet of white?
    Please don't let me die this way
    I want to live another day.
    Please don't bury me i plead
    I'll be the perfect child you need
    God don't make this my last dance,
    give me animation, just one more chance.
    I didn't mean to become so drunk,
    So why god this eternal bunk?

    This is not an unusual feeling. If we feel life slipping away we all want to live. I got accidently hit over the head recently by the closing of a trunk. I thought I was dying and your words were my prayer... It wasn't my time... and not yours either

    Surprising end, this was so well written so entertaining; yet, their is a serious vein about drunkeness. You used irony to plead your case with a compelling promise,

    Pleading with God to give one time to continue with life after an almost fatal mistake.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
