Rusty Cage

It's been a hot minute since I've had a chance to write and make a post.. I got inspired reading another's post on age and had to chime in on that. I reblogged as it was a great post.. kudos to the author. 👍

Let's see if I got some chops still lol. So I ask you...

Do you wanna burn out, or fade away?


Rusty Cage

I sit here trapped inside this rusty cage This body getting older and quite colder Time takes it's toll.. no longer teenage The fires of youth set to slow smolder

People often say you get wiser with age That's bullshit, some pure propaganda vibe Spread to make the old quell their rampage I don't fucking buy it, I don't subscribe

When you get some decades behind you You begin to see life's cruel tricks The view is askew, masked in mildew Doctor can you give us another fix?

Everyday is another lesson in pain Everyone is dead, you're crying rain Brain is drained, you're no longer sane Your mind and body has taken the train

No longer living in a sound garden Father time is our personal warden The war forever rages on I beg your pardon All we can do is not let our hearts harden
