getting old
who wants it
like a slap in the mouth you see
cosmetic overhall
cream for this
cream for that
something to stop that fat
southern hemisphere
it draws near
pump them up
nip and tuck
cellulites a blighter
liposuction leaves you lighter
dreaded age
no more centre stage
liver spots confirm the rot
............................................
hang on though
is it so bad
the issue to impress
demised, no longer a drag
the rat race gone
no more out there on the block
competing with the rest
to attract the opposite ***
