The As We List, List
The As We List, List
Aging gives one pause
But suggests a full release:
No more dentists
insurance
viruses
burnt toast
needle sticks
Christmas rush
long lines
long lines
gray days
fleas
fleas
fallen trees
splinters
splinters
flat tires
deadlines
dull books
airplane trips
driving
debts or
bugs on the broccoli.
For now we trudge on,
Dragging all the above
In our back pouch
And front pockets.
“No more“, sorta sets the whole
Picture In a new frame
.
“No more“, sorta sets the whole
Picture In a new frame
