Aging


Left my cane at home,

Ego.

Dyed my white hair brown,

Mistake.

Hiked up a mountain,

Breathless.

Aches and pains abound,

Youth gone.

      Agreed. The longer we live, the more joys and sorrows come our way. Mostly, for me, I’ve been disappointed by the political genre of false realities. Not being disappointed is now a joy.

    What a disaster when I dyed my hair brown….I looked like all those other weird guys who are trying to look younger. A fried removed the dye that same day.
