rolling past behind him in an old Ford pickup the bearded driver yelled You must live a charmed life, man!  he laughed heartily

          he was crossing six lanes of trafficquickstepping through the fourthwaved to a woman driver who hesitantly went left behind him he waved the book he was reading in thanks and the paper he tucked inside it to jot notes slippedout fell onto the road she steered right a bit not to run it overhe went left behind her the paper folded used its wings to skipup the road away from him he gave chasecaught it stompedsnagged it and standingup he was coollyamazed   there was no traffic

. . . didnt have much of a crack at life

No. But that's relative?

his shoulder tickedquivered ached whenever he got irritated it went off 

                                                                              Relative

he also spoke few words the fewer the more angry  he worked hard to pushdown redviolence going off inside him

oblivious Yes. Life is relative, lifespans relative.

For example

A fruitfly. A healthy outbred population can have a medium lifespan of 75 to 90 days. An amoeba, two days, however because they reproduce by dividing, fission, they are more or less immor . .

. . Shit examples

   A mayfly lives for a day or . .

. . A nymph

An aquatic larvae . . . possibly a year . poor example. 

Yasaid it

My pointthe point I’m trying to make is . . life’s relative.  he was getting irritated

Bothersome huh 

What?

Irritated

crossing a blacktop parking lot amid lots of cars in the aisle between the spaces he saw what looked like crumpledbut coudnt be leaves matted stuck together

No 

     Scant feathers  A dead chick

Appears to have fallenor was pushed from its nest

                                                    Aw comere little one  he bent over picked it up Didnt have much of a crack at life Im sorry walking towards a hedge holding it in his palm Im so sorry Likely yadave found life innarestin he scooped out a hole with his fingers and buried it Luck be I found ya though obviously you were ignored Had I been my old man Idave thrown ya in the trash  Chaps my hide

Im not irritated.

You irritated me chapped my hide 

                                      I don care for tha So pencil tha in somewhere soya don forget Thas a warning
