When I am Old
When I am old
that is to say, older then I am today, for truth be told
I already am... old to some, but
When I am old I plan on being just as bold and brash and full of wildfire
... perhaps desire has lessened some for unions of flesh
but oh the workings of the mind!
Wonders discovered which lay deeper than muscle and skin
the hidden treasures deep within another's soul
these are the lights which warm me on nights so cold..
When I am old...

hello I W DON'T WORRY I AM HERE TOO AT 82
perhaps desire has lessened some for unions of flesh
never
but may be age flares and tries to dare
just don't care
a body human is a robot
engineered
poet are you new
