Old People Know Poem by Dorsey Baker

Old People Know



Old people feel tiredness
A very different way
At least that's what
The old people say
Legs tired
Arms tired
Feet tired
Whole dog gone body
Tired
Real tired!
Like a warranty
That has just about
Expired!
Tired of everything
State of mind
Plenty of years
That is just
Left behind
Your tiredness
It makes you
Move real slow
It's a deep down
Painfulness
That grumbles
In the bones
That only the old people
Claim to know!
