Old

Middle-age, and who am I now?

Grey hairs, and a tattered coat upon a stick?

Where is the man who thought he would die

an infamous writer, in a drunken car crash

at twenty-three? Key-rash, kaboom.

And like everyone I know — I feel hope eternally,

though I feel eternally twenty-three years old.
