Can I Borrow That?

January 4, 2025

If you think about it, you never really own anything, you just borrow it for a little while.  Take your car for instance…you keep it until it doesn’t run any more or you get sick of it and sell it off to some teenager to beat on for a while…or you just junk it in for scrap.  Your house you ask?  One day someone will buy it and change everything you’ve done.  All your blood sweat and tears undone with the swing of a hammer.  Your various collections?  Sold in a garage sale, donated to charity, or worse yet, thrown in a dumpster.  Your treasures sold for pennies on the dollar or rotting in a landfill.  Then the last thing you borrowed for years on end, and beat to shit on a daily basis, your body!  Old, run down and not taken care of properly…you’re either thrown in a ditch or burnt into ash.  But hey, look on the bright side…maybe they make your ashes into an amulet or something; eventually being sold in a garage sale for pennies on the dollar, when nobody remembers where the hell they got this amulet from!
