Golden Years

by Chris Sorrenti


No – not referring to David Bowie
his sound much younger or older than mine
20s and 30s maybe
at least that’s how I remember it

Feeling more like a bad sci-fi movie
Logan’s Run
though it wasn’t so bad at the time
everybody over the age of 30
sent into the ring for immediate termination
to the amusement of anyone younger

No – the Golden years are more about
Bionics and advance medicine
how long can we prolong life?
while independence still there

In retirement
there is still more work to do
vocation and priority
staying alive
as long as one can or wants to
who would have known?

The Golden Years
aren’t so golden after all
