Obsolete

Antiquated, so outdated, old relic, dinasour. These things that I hate to admit, I can 
relate to, oh such a bore. Old fossile, neanderthal, over the hill, wow this is overkill. 
I'm out of style, way too many miles, sure do need a change.

Wonder where I can trade this old model in. Guess I'm out of luck, much to my 
chagrin! I feel like Yoda, out of mode-a-joke to the younger folk. News flash for you, 
I'm still cool, still got my hair, can still match your glare. Cheap sunglasses, six string 
too, I'm still rockin, not hip-hoppin.

Watcha think about that~~~Get Back Jack~~~~

Hi, Jack. Thanks for your kind comment. Sometimes I feel like an old dinasour...but I don't feel old as they think I am. I have plenty of energy and keep on going like a Duracel battery! It's not how you look but how you feel inside. Some guys look older than they actually are, and I can fool people with my looks! I love your humorous poem. I wish you all the best! Kind Regards, Andrew.
