Expiration I have so little to offer anymore. I try to keep up but I’m afraid I just don’t understand it all. Somewhere along the line I became old. I am out of date, past my prime. So much time spent alone. So many meals served for one. I know the world spins under my feet but somehow I have fallen behind. I blow the dandruff off my glasses, and look down at these old hands writing this poem. I wonder if they will ever hold someone again. |

Yo Zeigeist, Don't carry on like that. Look in a mirror and smile. Show your teeth, even if they're like mine--not real. Bobby |

ah, the great things about 'expiration' dates: They're usually RENEWABLE! Drive 'em till the wheels fall off, Z! Jeff |
