Why I Plan To Skip My 55th Class Reunion
Why I Plan to Skip My 55th Class Reunion
By Elton Camp
We were “The Ones Who Really Rate”
That is to say, “Senior Class of 58”
At the 50th reunion, I got a bad surprise
I found that I couldn’t believe my eyes
It made me gasp and then almost choke
To see all those ugly looking old folk
Some too senile even to recognize me
Five years later, I’ll just let them be
I’m glad to say I’ve remained the same
The way most of them aged is a shame
Another reunion, why even try?
I think I’ll just pass this one by
