Sixty-Seven Going On Thirteen

Sixty-seven going on thirteen.
My face fools people.
My friends know this.

Sixty-seven going on thirteen.
I am invisible at work.
The others are under forty.

Sixty-seven going on thirteen.
Reflecting my real age in my writing
I make young friends.

Sixty-seven going on thirteen.
I am only unafraid to show myself in poetry and art.
So hold on if you want the ride.
