Friends, acquaintances, and icons dying.
\nTimes and things you grew up with fading
\nor faded away, as if they never happened.
\nDrive In Theatres, Studebakers, Phone Booths,
\nTypewriters, Transistor Radios, TV Dinners,
\nMartin Luther King, Aldous Huxley,
\nErnest Hemingway, Sharon Tate, Farah Fawcett.
\nYou\u2019re fading away too.
\nBody older, weaker, balance not as good, mind
\nnot as sharp, health problems, minor and\/or major,
\nbones may be brittle too.
\nWhat\u2019s a body to do?
\nAcceptance. Acceptance. Acceptance.
\nThere\u2019s not much else you can do.
\nYou\u2019re fading away too. <\/p>\n
