Sometimes on the phone,

Sometimes in person,

Often on-line,

Occasionally when knocking on the door of the privy,

Always first thing in the morning …

Gotta go!

When the waves of life's stormy seas become more

Than the tired cliche they are …

And actually start to soak the boat,

Then,

I gotta go.

I do mean, to be correct, "I have to go" or

"I must go" or

"Pardon me"

OR …

"Bye now!"

But "Gotta go" is just more …

REAL. 

GOTTA 

G – Grabbing necessity
O – Overwhelming urge
T -  Temporal urgency (urge on steroids)
T – Trust me; its true!
A – After I've gone, I'll explain.

GO –
G – Get going and get in the groove; its time for movement.
O – Out of here.

And that is where I am now …

And will be at moments through the day …

BUT …

I felt

I had to write

Even something trite …

I may not have time later.

What must be done, must be done now

Because ONE DAY …

SOME DAY …

When I say,

"Gotta Go!"

I'll really have to go …

And …

In spite of my efforts …

Or anyone's

I'll be gone.

You too!

Gotta go …

I'll probably be back …

But you never know.

SEIZE THE DAY!!!!!

        SEIZE THE MOMENT!!!!
