Be Old

Be old
Wear old hats
Fix your teeth
And your right foot
Sit on the park bench as long as you want
You have no competition

Pet your glories
Let them lay at your feet
Count your pearls, all of them
Find gems in your pocket
The things that are next that you can’t imagine
Small fireworks down the road, fires
