Can I order my life
Like I order my eggs?
Over easy, if you please.
Firm around the edges
With a richness within
That oozes out
And coats each moment
With savory goodness
Or maybe sunny side up
Brightness so apparent
An inviting outward appearance
Again the richness within
Possibly even hard boiled
Solid and settled
A bit of work to experience it all
But full-bodied and flavorful
Can I order life like that?
Sorry sir
Scrambled is all we’ve got
