night
frisbee
Mixing colors
with clean hands
as
the
bruises
fade from the child's knee caps ..
Laughin' over
sitcom trivia
as
the
young bum
rides his grocery cart full of
things
down the parkway ..
Other people stop - drive-by
telling me
and
others
that we're old enough
to
know that we shouldn't
play frisbee past dark in
the
street ..
That's it ..
It's a shame how age makes people lose
their sense of adventure ..
period.
