There were moments of regret That I painfully recall. Moments I try to subdue Like hitting a brtick wall. No one is perfect, I read long ago But it seems we try hard To perfect an aging labido Like an old one track record. Yet the thought is what counts. It lets us see ourselves Without any blinders on. The real you, with warts and all.

Cool. I find "the real you" to be much more interesting than some faked up version of ourselves.
