Poem

As you kick to the end

Senescence ongoing
Biological to the core
Cellular and systemic
Even genes mutate

Creeps in on you
Like a thief at night
Movement deliberate
Your thoughts too

The new kids run
Outpacing you
The final stretch
Never ending

Energy flagging
Redeemed by love
Unconditional and true
As you kick to the end
