Still Curious



Living it down on the downlow
But living up to my potential
Not giving up curiously
When everything is existential

Between to be and not to be
I am here to see what I mean so
I stay to the end of the play

To be a curious thing to do
After all curiosity
Is how I am still here anyway
To leave now might be rude of me

I can write about it all the way
I think this helps me think it through
Say what I mean and mean what I say

Between the lines where I come true
Like a dream I never quite forgot
I believe in that makes me stay
Curious about what I might see

My question why becomes why not
Grateful for the Godgivenness of
Belated opportunity

Giving it all and living for love
Seems how to be forgivenly
From my living up and down I know
To hang on and write poetry

How from now on until I am gone
Outliving myself as I go
But still curious I will hang on

I hope to hang around as long as I can, just to see what happens next. Curious as a cat.
