I pay my bills
And the dentist cleans my teeth every six months
I leave Amazon reviews
And I “like” things
Am I alive? Did I leave my mark?
Am I more than a flicker of light in the endless dark?
I recycle
Sometimes
I watch the shows
I laugh at jokes
I feel old though a moment ago
I was chasing my children in the yard
Now they vote
And I go
To the radiologist, neurologist, audiologist, psychologist, endocrinologist,
pharmacist and physical therapist
Movies are remakes
Fashions are retro
History repeats
And I’m told that I don’t know
Anything
Because it’s new
And I’m not
But it all looks the same to me
