As he teetered on the brink
Of this existence
Did he quantify success
Based on
Fast cars and hot women?
~
Any regrets?
~
Did the futile search
For his ideal
Cause concern?
~
Did he measure his own value
In the manner of the world:
Dollars
Cents
Titles
Rents,
And feel remorse?
~
Or did he say,
“Hot Damn!
This was one wild ride!
I’m so flippin’ glad
I lived large ’til I died!”
