Wise Beyond My Years
I should get a smart phone
but i'm 73 and don't give a toss.
Black history is about ***** folks - who knew?
No, I will NOT untuck my shirt!
I have come to the conclusion
that loosely knit realities
do not unravel like the uptight kind -
it's a tremendous relief.
A flintlock musket
is not as handy as a Glock
but it's so pretty
and you can use it to hammer nails.
This wisdom is free
and cannot be exchanged, redeemed
or returned.
