Active & Feeble

 

In struggled an elderly

Active mind

Pushing, pulling

And dragging

A feeble body behind,

It was like looking

At the future

Past many, many

Tomorrows,

Yet there was no

Sorrow in his eyes

As he ordered

A double espresso

Straight up,

As if reading my

Thoughts he said,

The problem with

The world today

Is that there are

Too many young feeble

Minds in active bodies.
