Aging

Aging’s a rich and humbling thing, when the mold gets inside the great fortress of the body and try your best, it won’t do what you want any more. A wheeze won’t go away, a limp, a back injury 85% healed, but never what it was, and you have to say, yes, I’m walking down the hill now, only yesterday it was up, into the morning, a great adventure, but it’s good to come home, slowly, you’ve had the adventure, after all, it’s good to come home.
