Take that one chance and make it a great one
At a young age you were told "You have the whole world ahead of you to do what you like"
What do you do...Nothing. Most settle on what comes to them easily. Never striving for much more then the basics. It don't matter to you at the time. You have youth, energy, your having unprotected sex and hanging out with friends all the time. Life seems quite good, until you have to grow up.
At middle age you now think "I've should have done this to avoid that or to go this route instead of that route" You realize changes can be made but you become to content and set...

Ratio
Jewish Singles 60 & Over:
Hey members, we have 547 women signed up for our Zoom chat
and 8 men!
That's the most men we've ever had.
Get your sexy on ladies
for the big eight
One might even be interesting!
You have slightly better than lottery-like odds
but you know that queen of cleavage from Brazil is going to be on
and no doubt some other super slim hotties
competing for the bloated and bald
the short and the shy
the nerdy and not that nice
15 minutes in, a decent-looking male doctor will sign on ...

Hoods
Childhood
Winds may blow harshly
Roots persist beneath the storm
We remain ourselves.
Adulthood
Light on the horizon
Path unshadowed by others
I am my own guide.
Elderhood
In the mirror, strength
Reflection of courage true
Voice of liberty.
Winds may blow harshly
Roots persist beneath the storm
We remain ourselves.
Adulthood
Light on the horizon
Path unshadowed by others
I am my own guide.
Elderhood
In the mirror, strength
Reflection of courage true
Voice of liberty.

Footnotes Knocking
Of innuendos and footnotes knocking
a shadow at my door harmonizing
like a ghost on a carousel
riding a pony, crucified frog notes
of innuendos and footnotes
a shadow at my door harmonizing
like a ghost on a carousel
riding a pony, crucified frog notes
of innuendos and footnotes

tomorrow
I’m tired
of what?
I don’t know
I’m too tired to analyse it
maybe (may be)
tomorrow
of what?
I don’t know
I’m too tired to analyse it
maybe (may be)

sorry your phone’s broke
older I get
hungry and go
to the café
but it’s not a café
anymore
it’s a bloody mobile phone
repair shop
I wonder
what went
wrong
hungry and go
to the café
but it’s not a café
anymore
it’s a bloody mobile phone
repair shop
I wonder
what went

being lame
I balked at the kerb like
a horse at a fence
lost my nerve, but
not my common sense
a horse at a fence
lost my nerve, but
not my common sense

in her nineties, she doesn’t think it will happen again
mum was a child in the
second world war and
I was born thirteen years after all
she says life has to go on

I was born thirteen years after all

and as for those I loved
whether I knew them from
television or records or
real life growing up it isn’t pleasant
to see them all dying
