norman glass'ın yazdığı bizden de can baba'nın da hayati tersten yasamak ismiyle coverladığı müthiş şiir. *
life is tough
it takes up a lot of your time, all your weekends,
and what do you get at the end of it?
... death, a great reward.
i think the life cycle is all backwards.
you should die first, get it out of the way.
then you should live twenty years in an old-age home.
you get kicked out when you're too young,
you get a gold watch, you go and work.
you work for forty years until you re
young enough to enjoy your retirement.
you go to college, you party until
you re ready for high school,
you become a little kid, you play,
you have no responsibilities,
you become a little boy or girl,
you go back into the womb,
you spend nine months floating.
and you finish off as a gleam in someone s eye.
