Kick the can


 Kick the can


I’ve come way to far beyond the age of ten

far, far to ever bring it back again 

And now, six decades into the playing

they are yet saying

it’s time to set aside the childish ways

but there are no nest eggs

no pensions of the prudent

no golden parachutes 

I shall not retire to the Blurry Place

These toys shall serve this boy

It’s all he has

Too, too far beyond the age of ten.
