Older I Get
I thought
the older I got,
the more I’d know,
the more I’d understand
Turns out
the older I get,
the more there is
to draw from,
the more there is
not to know
I thought with age,
answers would
out number questions
But that’s not
how its going
I not only have questions
about today and tomorrow
I have mounting
unanswered questions
about all my yesterdays
I don’t believe
if I answer
a question about
today or tomorrow
it will have
any relevance
on my yesterdays
If I can
answer one question
about yesterday
maybe it
will eliminate
questions about
today or tomorrow
