I am an old man by most people's standards <br />I don't care who the asshole is that tells you fifty eight isn't old <br />Don't believe them....it's too damn old to pretend <br />That you're still young... <br />However...I hope to live to be even older yet <br />Not too old but maybe twenty more years give or take a few... <br />Till I start wetting myself or forgetting my name... <br />Like I did when I was two.... <br /> <br />2007© T Sheridan<br /><br />Ted Sheridan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/depends-to-keep-the-old-man-dry/
