Samuel Beckett

I have never told this to anyone,

but I speak the truth

and the truth comes out from under me

out from under the rocks and wet leaves

it’s taken years of abuse and admittance

of waiting in lines and for my hair to fall out

years of using deodorant and years of eating T.V. dinners

but I figured I’d tell the truth now

because better now then never

especially since I’m going blind

and the doctors say I only have nine more months to live

and live I shall,

live I shall

I made love to Samuel Beckett.
