Old Age

Typing creaking fingers cold

Windows frosting growing old

Cats in balls and feet in shoes

Painting of fire warming blues

Thoughts are sticky

Mouth stuck shut

Mind lost wandered

Finger scraped rut

Swishing honking belching cars

Pass invisible glimpsed through bars

Scritching scratching frost on pane

Lines of neglect no longer sane

Dust on x-box

Dust on floor

Dust on memory

Papery yawn

Roiling boiling black with cloud

Rain as golf balls knifing down

Trees bent double grass is flat

Puddles lakes drowning cat
