In these strange terrible days.
I feel my mortality close and personal.
Life expectancies for Coloreds is about 72.
So this is my year...or close to it.
Weird that. I'm coasting from here on.
Till recently Colored folks kicked da bucket at 69.
The shortest lifetime for any U.S. ethnic group.
Native Americans who are having even
'more' fun here than we are. Live near ten years longer.
Lucky...I guess.
You'd have to ask them.
