Fate Gives You The Finger

Most People, Including Myself, Keep Repeating The Same Mistakes.

My Mother Was Born In The City, My Dad Was An Immigrant. Probably From Germany. Could Have Been Austria, Could Have Been Poland. The Borders Were Changing. My Dad Brought Over A Large Family Of Shatners When He Was Very Young. Scraped Together The Money, Got 11 Brothers And Sisters A Passage On The Boat. There's A Lot Of Shatners In Montreal.

My Mother Was An Exuberant, Silly Lady.

Oh, For God's Sake... Get A Life, Will You?

I'm So Not Ready To Die. It Petrifies Me. I Go Alone. I Go To A Place I Don't Know. It Might Be Painful. It Might Be The End. My Thought Is That It Is The End. I Become Nameless, And I Spent A Lifetime Being Known.
