Odd

Unusual

A shiver runs down ine the train crashing Like people who are scared to fly do before each flight

I brush it off, knowing that I stand a greater chance of dying frohost train than in any train wreck

It’s a train wreck that I’et away from too

The one called my life

“You need a break,” My doctor toldthat scares you,” he advised me

“Hell You can even usethere empty ten months of the year”

As one of my best clients, he knows me more than most

My whole life is one big fucking vacation, that’s part of the problem

I never

Why?

I’ my fair share of travel for work But the reality is I’m bored

I’ I touched I have it all, with soe left over

Some people have it all then blow it all

Me, I just keep getting more and more whether I like it or not

Real estate mainly, some other investments I started in construction, sold the first house I built for rew from there

I don’t have an equal, a partner And I don’t mean a business partner either Been there, done that

A king without his queen if ever there was one That’s me

I catch a gli what others see right back at me

Stooping a little to slotinto the overhead compartment, I remind myself that I’m not other people

At over six and a half feet, built like a linebacker I’ve got more money than I knohat to do with

I watch host frolass

I even catch a sly wink from myself

I’ve still got it
