A Hitch in my Getalong
I used to walk without a limp,
now it seems I possess a set,
first one leg, then the other went.
Then there are those day
or night urgent bathroom
calls, bordering on mini
bad disasters. Now that
never used to happen.
Even passing a little gas,
has become a risky business.
Up at least twice at night,
to pacify my bladder.
But thankfully so far,
my sleep *** Alarm
is still in working order.
I'm starting to suspect
that adult Depends may
be getting a little closer.
There are things I enjoy in this
human aging process, however
the annoying list of the above
items, are obviously not among them.
I jest a little, it's laugh at ourselves
or get depressed. It's all part of the
process. Going with the flow so to speak.
