The Indolent

Audio Recordings / tagged Aging, Retirement / August 15, 2022 / by neil_2015_wordpress@neilmeili.com

Having passed the age where
most have retired by choice or force
and with no particular trade to retire from
I watch sports on TV
all of which I played in my youth
with varying degrees of limited skill
and still care as much about the outcome
I read, because at ten
I fell in love with a teacher twice my age
And because bored was a word
never to be uttered on a working ranch
and the world infinitely interesting I carry on
