HE WAS BORN TO BE OLD

He was born to age before his time
born to listen, and that aged him
over and over again same old storeys
old memories, so many times they
became his memories, as if he'd experienced
lived them
aged long before he could be ever a child, a youth

"He was born to age before his time
born to listen, and that aged him"
