A funny little poem on growing old.

Twilight Zone by Stuart Macfarlane
 

I am old,
I am wrinkled and wretched,
I am a life insurance policy ready to be surrendered,
I am fumbling and frail,
I am a candidate for the Zimmer Olympics,
I am drooping and decrepit,
I am the winter of life’s cruel dream,
I am tired and worn,
I am youth’s sad antipathy,
I am sickly and slow,
I am a coffin awaiting occupancy,
Pity me,
Today is my birthday,
I am 30!!!
