Old, Broken Down and Delapidated

Old, Broken Down and Delapidated are words some men use to describe women of a certain age, because they have matured and wondered away from the naive stage, they have reached a place where they are comfortable with themselves and don't need to have the flattery of deceptive elves, The days of bubble gum and bobby socks have disappeared, Men say they want a real woman, yet, they are so content to linger around the juvenile crew, primarily because they don't know any better and haven't got a clue! Teenaged girls are much preferred because they hold them in high esteem, the weaklings need to be revered, even if it's baloney and a pile of s-h-h-a-v-i-n-g cream, A woman who is composed and doesn't laugh at all their silly jokes makes them feel as if they have lost their game, while teeny boppers makes them feel smarter than a window pane, Old, Broken Down and Delapidated is not so bad, if one has survived the 100 years war with deceptive Sir Gallahads, or tragedy unaware, Many broken down women are just glad to be here, living amongst God and folks who are about something as opposed to gentry who prefer to be shallow criticizing everyone and everything.....
