Retro
“I’m not old – I’m retro”
Says the sign that looks antique.
I bought it ‘cause I liked
Its sassy message, tongue-in-cheek.
But really, who embraces old
Or elderly or aged?
Why, even senior can be wrong
When someone’s years are gauged.
So I will stick with retro
‘Cause it sounds so cool and hip.
Come join my Retro club –
It’s an exclusive membership!
