Old
To be old, does it mean out in the cold because you have greatly slowed and can easily be controlled.
Or becoming enclosed while people try to remold by gaining a foothold.
That's an absolute No. Being old don't mean you can control nor do you scold and treat them like mould.
To be old is to behold, countless stories untold, so they need to be consoled and never try to remold, that's just plane being an Ahole.
Yes the old needs to be bestowed for great wisdom can be fortold and it will come back tenfold.
For The Good Lord composed the old then broke the mould and made them worth their weight in gold.
So when you are with the old, don't scold, don't explode and never try to control or be an Ahole.
Because this will come back twofold when you grow old.
