That Certain Age
by David Pekrul
copyright 01-18-2006


Age Rating: 13 to 127

 
I never thought I'd be this age,
(The years, they really move),
Yet even though I'm getting old,
A few things do improve.

Like, I can sit around all day,
And never do a thing,
No longer have to cook a meal,
My nurse does everything.

And when I've had a lot to drink,
And squirm just like an ant,
I never have to find the 'Loo',
I do it in my pants.

And no one ever says a thing,
For they're afraid to ask,
Why I'm outside with nothing on,
Except a cape and mask.

Senility is not for me,
My mind is very clear,
I do the things I want to do,
I'm not like I appear.

As I attain a certain age,
I act the way I please,
For I can do most anything,
With "grace and expertise".

I find this hilarious and very well crafted. Like Jim stated, the irony here is very well depicted. It has a very nice flow to it and the imagery is very vivid and funny. Well done, David!

I love the irony and humor in this-- its very lighthearted way of accepting something scary that we all need to face. Well-wriiten and a joy to read.

Jim
