Kit Webbe Poet Light Verse

When I Get Old

Will you fold if I get old ?
Will you bale if I begin to ail ?
Will you give a toss for my hair loss ?
Will your eye bat at my fat ?

Will you think me a wimp
If I start to limp ?
Will it stop your heart
If I fart ?
What’s the net if I begin to forget ?
Will you call a let ?
Or is it game match and set ?

What I’m asking is whether
When I get old, will we stay together,
Or will I fall apart, apart ?.
