In Old Age/Everything Is More Difficult Poem by Shalom Freedman
In Old Age/Everything Is More Difficult
In old age
Everything is more difficult
The things once done without thinking
Need to be planned out for like strategic campaigns
Life is more of an effort to conquer the trivial
Pettiness and fuss augment
Whether one likes or not
Too many little things
Become big things
In old age
Everything is more difficult
Staying alive is the major goal
And one wonders much of the time
Whether it is worth it.
