6 Oh

tonight I feel etheric
a drifting fog; densely veiled yet so thin
a bit of trapped moisture; really so little
emotions transparently moody
mourning this six-oh
gapped between sad and depressed
my toe holds onto each shore
I keep a posture of happy- yes, sadly so very happy
then falling into a cloud of violet cake
 

Writer???

Because EYE said so!

In my head.
6Oh is the new 40 baby, hang in there.

(god I hope I didn't mis-interpret this. :D)

How right you are. Am I hanging in for 70, as my father would say, "Well what's the alternative?" He avoided death at all costs.
Do you believe in reincarnation?

You carry it well. Must be the happy posture. I hope I'm even half as vibrant when I get there.

60 is only old if you act old, like those grumpy old biddies in my store every day bitching about the smallest of things...that's when you're old regardless of chronology.

6 Oh
six-oh this morning
my mood balanced; at once happy then depressed
maintaining a posture; yes sadly so very happy
tumbling into 6 One

your age
such an exquisite ruse
explain to my
rabbit pulse
what a number means

So, Limey, are you saying it's about mini-golf?

used to. these days i somehow sense there is more to it than that.... or less. something, for sure.

you carry it beautifully, whatever the number -- what does a number really mean. nothing. only geometry, space, illusion.
