Do You Relate, Of Late? (for the over 50 crowd)

these moments
of brainless state
cause pine for satiate
and often irritate
the heart and soul of me

a common word
of late
has letters
that surely aggravate
my ability to see

and cat who’s come to dine
three hours before past nine
I seek to draw the line
and put him out, does whine,
from just beyond the door

it is unnerving friend
I’m quite at my wit’s end
for things I’ve thought to do
I am already through
my brain’s a dinosaur

need I say more?

My thinker done thunk its way into decay
what can I say, won't you pray?
