A Travelling Sage

There once was a travelling sage

Who yet lived to a very old age.

      Well becoming quite senile,

      With problems (yes penile),

The reader may choose:

1) He kept his packed trunk in a cage.

or

2) He packed his wee trunk in a rage.

The second for me is definitely the better choice. But does it matter if it's packed or unpacked? Just saying "packed" makes for a better beat!!

I have a couple of extra lines for you. His ruddy trunk turning beige. His shrunken compartments could no longer engage.
