Biography of a Backward Man.

 

Breakfast at nightime

Warm in Winter.

Became a doctor first

Then went to school.

Studied all day

Failed.

Divorced three times

Then found love.

Felt guilty all his life

Then killed someone.

Created a cult

Never went to mass.

Picked the colours off paintings

And created a masterpiece

But died first.

I've read this one loads of times.
It reminds me of Charles Bukowski.
Love it!

Thanks for your comment man. The crazy thing is he is actually experiencing life like that. It's actually not backwards he just does things in the opposite way of everybody else. eg. He was divorced three times because he was'nt truly in love ,then he found (real) love. He was a doctor first because he didnt have the grades good enough to go to college so he self taught. Hence doctor first.He died before making his masterpiece is implying that people only get really famous after they die. And he created a cult but never went to mass is him rejecting the church and choosing to take his own spiritual path. Etc.....
