SHE LOOKS GOOD FOR HER AGE
She looks good for her age,
A group of women agrees,
Shiny painted pinkies fluttering
Alongside frothy cups of cappuccino.
And I wonder who
Has made it through the minefield,
Outrun the canons,
And summitted the hill
Without “letting herself go”,
As we tend to say, usually with a tight-lipped frown,
Tweakment consenting of course.
Good for her, I think,
Hoping she lets herself go with enough
Fabulous Abandon
To yell
WHEEEEEEEE
As she skip-sashays all the way
Down
To
The
Bottom.
