How ironic you say, living you made
no impact on anything but dead its
a whole new game. Explain that in a
way which placates a cringing ego.
It’s corporeality’s last relic you think –
having an ego as a hangover deemed
meaningful; be advised, no dead man
plays the game nor has a self or cares
what you think. Fame is a blink with 10
cent notoriety run to the head. Yep,
given my druthers, I’d rather be dead.

Personal conundrum: how do you see it all as a game, and not be dismissive of it? This one made me think, Ivan...btw, really loving your direction(s). Seems that the 1000 mark was just a rest-stop...hehehe!
