Older Than Age

 with age comes misunderstanding
not clarity...  our minds work to
our mutual disadvantages, twisting
and turning our latent realities,
providing us with false narratives
of the life we failed to understand
or realize when we were younger;
we remember what we want to
remember and understand even less
of that which we try to remember
for the sake of our patient families...
with age comes confusion...
sight gives us glimpses of our
memories like computer storage
when disconnected from the network;
entitlements sit on the table with
all our other currencies of life that
we can no longer spend since the
was adopted by the I.M.F....  we are
finite not infinate in our pursuits of
happiness that drool from the corners
of our mouth as if we had a stroke;
we have children and siblings that
we no longer recognize because
they do not speak the same language
and all our spouses line up to receive
their daily abuse while we solemnly
gaze out the the window of the past
and into our landscaped future yard.
