PROSE POSER

if I was offered a choice between a Ferrari

and everlasting life

that would need some careful consideration

 

      and while i'm thinking it out (hypothetically)

i'll take out my very own genie's lamp

(always a comfort in times of stress)

      rub it vigorously

      wait for results.

I mean, this comes with no strings

no after effects

and no need to change

the philosophy i'm using.

 

      Come to think of it

      I might even forget about the Ferrari

      and await results on the other business.
