                An Aging Hunter-Gatherer on Morning Patrol

Up before dawn for coffee with Venus
Cool and dry, a San Diego dawn
Medicines for the creaky old dog
Medicines for the creaky old me

Early to town for a Connie-cut
At girly Designs Et Cetera
North of town past the traffic light
The school board, taxes, marriages, and deaths

A cruise by the Sonic for cholesterol
Home to think about mowing the yard
