Who is that person?
Smaller eyes
Hammertoes
Jellyfish thighs
Bigger nose
Herniated discs
Gout-swollen toes
Hairy upper lips
Flapping arms
Broken hips
Aching shins
Lost minds
Waddle chins
Merciless scales
Crows' feet
Brittle nails
Radiation scars
Wild-ass cancer cells
Too many lost things
But if I tell a story
or share a memory
I know I will find joy
'Til the very day
I... am... dead.
