9/9/13 9:57am – 9/17/13 8:33pm
out of the palm of the elderly hand
(desire to feed what need to be fed)
out of the palm of the elderly hand
together they carry on tradition
whatever it is that possesses man
it comes with age’s simple addition
on a park bench it comes to fruition
desire to feed what need to be fed
birds spoiled with elderly permission
crumbs direct the flock with hands breaking bread
oh it seems to me there’s something to be said
for what seems to be the human condition
if aging feels the need it’s our decision
to desire to feed what need to be fed
