Humans are so adorable

every dog should have one
for a pet

Retirement is my cocoon

that I will emerge as any mature larva would do
Not as a butterfly
I am too macho for such daintiness
I will stumble forward
knocking over life’s props
as I always have
only now I no longer need to mend
the broken world
I leave behind

I keep catching myself staring at my reflection

Not from admiration
But from shock
that they
are still staring back at me

I read classics yet to be written

speak with people yet to be born
find solutions yet to be problems
use things yet to be invented
finish poems never begun
