Back in the Saddle Again

After a long absence I have finally decided to come back to this blog. This piece comes from sometime in the last four years, but I cannot place it with any more certainty than that.

Growing Older

I once thought

I was wise

Flees

Those who abuse

And comforts

The mourners

I hope I’m never

Half as smart

As I think

I am
