Mortality
Lost a number of friends from schooldays when they were in their forties. Puts you in touch with your own mortality, hence the title. Makes you philosophical about yourself when you get down in the dumps, and usually the thought that you're better off then Elvis is enough to bring you back to Earth

another nicely done poem. you say poems aren't your favorite but i think your poems are very well written and the messages they convey are clear.
