from 1 to 10,
miraculous changes come
to the fleshy parts &
the bones of those
who dare.
between 50 & 60
it is likewise.
the years between
10 & 20 bring astounding
changes to the body &
mind for humans who
nobly undertake to
persevere.
between 60 & 70
it is likewise.
before & after
this pungent dawn
can it be otherwise?
