Getting Older

Just wait,

there will come a time when most

of what you do

is to think about what you did.

You want to be happy?

Dig hard to do

whatever it is you do.

Then it’ll be good

thinking about what you did.

Don’t get me wrong.

It’s not necessary to

win all the races.

It’s only important to

finish

the races,

beaten up a bit from the try.

Even then, you’ll

think you should have

tried harder.

When the time comes

when what you do is

to think about what you did,

be kind to yourself when

you’re thinking about

what you did.
