we deal with it every day
year and decade,
what we once liked
we do not now or
vica versa as they say...
childish refusal of eggs
the standard meal now,
boxers seemed too baggy
now are wonderful,
alcohol to relax
replaced with rhythms
of a mental kind...
different yet the same,
complex yet simplified
foolish yet full of wisdom
of the ages - a cliche
but applicable in all facets,
we defy understanding
explore the unreasonable,
a mental suitcase in hand
we galivant around
like a strutting show horse,
squared shoulders and proud,
not as we once were...
somehow different this time
growing into what we've become.
