My Name Is Joe

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Nov 04, 2016

Hello my name is Joe,
I'm from planet Earth.
I opened my eyes one day and found myself there. Where I was before I do not know. They taught me stuff, made me go to school. To keep alive I found a job then passed on my genes. I'm getting old now and I'm slowing down. Soon I will close my eyes and be moving on. Where I go next I do not know. But I know it will be someplace else, 
my dreams told me so.
Perhaps we'll meet again.
