Enviable Me

 Some days I'll have beer for breakfast,

other days it's rum.

Either way, I pass the test

of making my life fun.

I'll watch a profound movie,

'specially if it is Shrek,

and I am feeling groovy 

although my life's a wreck.

I thank all of my lucky stars,

and count God's blessings, too,

while I hang out at biker bars

(always something to do!),

and enjoy sweet victory 

that everybody envies me.

The Five Minute Friday prompt this week is FINALLY.

Finally got me to the point 

I shoulda been at all along

(no, I didn't smoke a joint,

but the wine I drank was pretty strong)

where I realized the past is done,

and all the zombies can go home.

Now it's time for having fun,

letting my laugh free to roam

across the days and 'cross the miles

of the future that's so bright 

that it will reflect my smiles

and I will need my shades at night 

for I have found the way ahead

by letting dead bury their dead.

Three minutes flat, but I am not entirely sure exactly what I said.

Sylvia doesn't envy me. She thinks I want to be more like her. She's right.
