Alien.

you may not believe it 
but there are people 
who go through life with 
very little 
friction or 
distress. 
they dress well, eat 
well, sleep well. 
they are contented with 
their family 
life. 
they have moments of 
grief 
but all in all 
they are undisturbed  
and often feel 
very good. 
and when they die 
it is an easy 
death, usually in their 
sleep.  
you may not believe  
it  
but such people do 
exist.  
but I am not one of 
them. 
oh no, I am not one 
of them, 
I am not even near 
to being 
one of  
them  
but they are 
there  
and I am  
here. Charles Bukowski. The Aliens.
