Weathered

The body
is able,
But the spirit
is broken

Unable
to withstand
the beatings
endured in years
of development

Choking back
the bile from
an ulcerated stomach
another side-effect
of a chemical existence

Gray hairs,
fine lines,
and dark rings
tell the story
of a worried,
weary man
aged beyond
the concrete years

Crippled with indecision
he spends his days
worrying about "what if"
so he simply never does
