Life of a senior citizen

Life of a senior citizen

One hell of a pain.

Living in the past, just vain.

Inflation, inflammation, wealth erosion 

Just enough pension but lots of tension, from family less attention

Weak digestion, constipation, high sugar and pressure lacking in Memories to treasure

More of grey hair and cells less

Joints creaking, pee leaking, no more a king

Stiff back, a problem one can’t crack

Elusive sleep, inside you weep, 

Monthly bill gives you the chill.

Can’t find the glasses, no where is the phone

Key to all this, where did I misplace?

Has one become wiser, or vice'r

Muttering to one self, does anything matter?

In the twilight hour, a drink you pour, to the life, awaiting the knock on the door!
