I guess I’m an old man now
A mean old man raised me
So I like the occasional story about the good ole days
And a western
A sweet old man brought me up
So I like the occasional fried chicken
And cartoons
Many old men have taken me under their wings
So I like the occasional junking and thrift store tools
Many old men have given me advice
On music, on depression, on cars, on food, on art
Many old men have written the books i’m drawn to
I guess I’m an old man now

I love this poem. An old man, my PawPaw, was/is one of my favorite humans ever. Peanuts, Cigars and a hearty laugh are some of his treasures. Thanks for this.
Thank you🥰
My pawpaw was also one of my favorite people ever
I reference him when I talk about fried chicken and cartoons ❤️
