These ancient bodies so full of knowledge
    dismissed by youth's hubris carry on frail
    ***** and parchment skinned. We were you.
    We traveled hormones. We scorned advice
    from elders like us. Ignore us as you must.
    Soon you'll wonder where your years went.
Blink of an eye it's forgotten.
