Protégé



over my shoulder, I look,

glancing at my life as it
inevitably passes me by;
noticing, as a spectator would
how carelessly it was lived
and how foolishly it was
focused on fleeting whims;
wishing...  it could be relived
by someone else with me
coaching from the side lines;
fearful...  that my successor
would not get it right either.
