rll 1989 Epitap John Burd I retired today Finally have my thirty years ser vice in. We worked hard to reach this point Time to travel and enjoy. No more obstructions between me And the American dream. Which wiU it be The Grand Canyon, Yosemite Na tional Park The Everglades? We have a full tank of gas Thirty-four years What a marriage. I've known you since I was a kid What a life. To school for a third of our lives Work till we're sixty Travel after that. How did we ever figure we could doit? Sense should have told us That one of us would be sick...or dead. In memory of M.H. Burd Life is already too short to have to waste a good portion of it arguing about tires that wear too fast, re frigerators designed to die in a few years, long sleeve shirts with sleeves lacking about three inches, slack filled cereal boxes, and pay ing five bucks more for the part than for a new machine; yet no one complains. We should be far beyond the obvious,promoting happiness for all concerned. Abandon the dollar as a false god and get on with life the way it was meant. Life is short. Lying Strung Out man Stone Lying strung-out seeing blackness Self-placed anger starts regression Night-time spurs on creeping madness Ever present this depression Shattered wine glass chards on the floor Late night TV goes off the air I can't handle problems anymore How I feel now no one does care Washing sorrow away with gin Slashing blade cuts lifeline brief Out come true thoughts once held within My life stolen myself the thief Red blood absorbed into silk sheets Nothing is worth stopping heart beats. o Exhibit Held in Library The Outdoor Writers Associa tion of America photo exhibit can be seen in the lower level of the Penn State Hazleton Campus Li brary beginning on Monday, April 3.
