Mindset

No longer can I run and jump. The speed
of light, the agility and might of youth have
all been spent.

The wishes and dreams of my prime, the
vitality of those formidable years have come
and gone over time.

For that which I had hoped and lost, or never
quite achieved, I must accept with a measure
of sorow and regret.

Tip me over and you shall see, the life which
remains in me now flows with the viscosity of
pure molases.

To the touch, some would agree, there lies this
undeniable bittersweet mindset, an intractable
tackiness which still clings to me.
