28, not 30

by Andrew S Adams

and on his little birthday cake
he shrugged and said grr, 28.
almost thirty, he says.
then fifty.
then EIGHTY.
THEN DEATH.

whoa, hold up there bud.

twenty-eight, not thirty.
nor any other absurdity
at this particular point in line
let's just take it, one day at a time.

technically for you,
it was 12:08 right there.
it was one hour earlier here,
but i dont really care.
so, when i decide to say
i want to celebrate your day
well, i'm gonna do it
and while it may not be perfect or cute
you had to read through this shit
that i'm trying to pull off as a tribute.

today, you're twenty eight.
just remember, it's not thirty...

yet.
;)
