Destination: The Home

When they finally wheel me into the home, my goal is to be the most interesting person there.

I figure I’ve got most of them beat.

I’ve loved a woman with an intensity most people would never understand.

I’ve wonderful children.

I aimed for the stars and missed. Didn’t stop me from loving it anyway.

I matched wits with crooks and brought them to justice.

I’ve been shot at.

I’ve been beat up.

I’ve been dead once.

I’ve walked away from things I had no right to walk away from.

I’ve seen war.

I’ve seen heartache.

I’ve seen victory.

I’ve seen defeat.

Hell, they’ll probably just think I’m a demented old man and haven’t a clue what I’m talking about.
