Up in age is simply knowing what you want and getting satisfied in the process. Yes?


YES, OKAY (IF YOU STILL WANT TO)

Once past thirty five
The game is do or die
You steal then you'll lie

Maturity besets wisdom
Smarter than most, who won?
Also known as slightly dumb

We're incomplete still growing
Yes, okay if you still want to
Learning to the end of whenever

Cat cool or fox clever?
We're incomplete still discovering
Yes, okay if you still want to

Once past fifty five
The campfire smolders
Longevity getting older

Twenty two the new fifty
Knowledge being thrifty
Anger is brewed as numb

Yes,
Okay
If
You
Still
Want
To.
