I love my life
whisky on the rocks
a well-done steak
death by chocolate.

I love my life
the sex
the passion
the orgasm.

I love my life
the movies
that song in my head
the dirty dancing.

I love my life
the family dinners
my son growing up
me growing old.

I love my life
the plans
the desires
the promise of a better life.

I love my life
my house with the lawn
my son and my dog.

But I don't know why,
for death, I fantasise.
