The Morning Reading: "Looking at Pictures to Be Put Away"
Looking at Pictures to Be Put Away
by Gary Snyder
Who was this girl
In her white night gown
Clutching a pair of jeans
On a foggy redwood deck.
She looks up at me tender,
Calm, surprised,
What will we remember
Bodies thick with food and lovers
After twenty years.

yep. Getting old is a pain, but not getting old is worse.
Getting old is not for chickens.
