Short Life some prose by Steerpike
Short Life
by *MichaelOrtega

Spinning winds and cloudy eyes
My son riding a mongoose laughing
She turns on her side watching in comfort
Moments converting to lifelines

Running now walking, in control and dancing…
The winds blow me like a candy wrapper in summer
Flashing cards animating briefly my life
And it's all going too soon

Too soon I will leave my children
Too soon I will leave my wife
Too soon I will fade from this earth
Spinning in cloudy eyes undone
