At onescore I was arrogant
And twoscore I was dumb
Now threescore how transcendent
At last to overcome
Much past indiscretion such as
One who two through threescore has
Digression after of before
Not what I was meant for
But life went on though I went
Arrogant no more
When what I thought I knew
Ingrown went unknown out the door
One knew then the score was two
One who outgrew it inwardly
To overcome the dumb
More a total than a sum
As I grew into me
I knew then how I grew to be
As I say today at three
Fourscore here I come
