Better Man

Lonely in East Texas

From pixie sticks,
to lipsticks,
to what sticks in your craw,
because you are turning
a quarter of a century old??

Not to worry.
Stick your finger in the icing
and savor the flavor
of now, of this moment.

You can have your cake 
and eat it two...
two pieces at least,
All those worries about
cholesterol come much later.

Set a fire to what
waxes and wanes,
and then blow it off.
Make a wish to enjoy
three quarters of 
a century more.
far off in the future.

When you are 100
and your Hubby is 84,
and you are both doing
wheelchair races in 
a nursing home,
and laughing like old times.

When chap-sticks,
Nurses needle-sticks, and
just sticking around
is your sole purpose.

Then you will realize that 25
was kinder garden,
as you hobble through
your senior years.


It is merely a 
checkpoint in time,
one box on a vast calendar,
a colander for your salad days.

Toss it without a care,
and devour each day ahead.
It's only part of the main course,
settle in and enjoy
the banquet of 
your life to come
