I have decided that I shall live 
to the age of 83.  A prime number
and respectable age to reach without
too much fuss.  A very good age at 
which to travel on to the next stop.
Not too old and yet what could be 
termed a full life. 
I don’t care to break records.
I have no pension plan or savings,
no husband or lover to cover me. 
But now I have this plan.
I stand relieved.
