Old soul island
On old soul island,
we have to wait out our youth
in ghastly uncomfort.
Each day
we fight the beast
of our innate intolerances.
We don't play those
love, strife, bitterness,
and sorrow games.
We hold our spit in,
like good gracious ancients.
We are never young again.
We sneak in little eyerolls,
when noone's lookin
at bigger pictures.
We hum songs
in the background
of status quo struggles.
We are invisible,
until our bodies catch up to us.
Then, our party begins.

yikes, i do this now, but there's usually someone who notices.We sneak in little eyerolls,
when noone's lookin
at bigger pictures.
Does that mean i have a few middle age years left?
lovely salute, hester.
just answer my question - when does 'ancient' start? I'd like to hear anything over 1,500 years old.

meh?
I really enjoyed this. It describes how I feel so many days...
and the wonder is, there is a party just waiting to happen.
