Inheritance

I ache.
a man in his prime,
with stiff knees
and creaking back,
old before his time.
my fingers, like curlicues
once so adept
at fondling breasts and plucking strings,
now adolescent inept.
anxiety haunts my corners
like paranoia sown, while
muscles twitch and tremor
in a rhumba all their own.
I am tired. So tired.
nerves fire without pause
we live what we inherit,
regardless of the cause.

Sounds like Parkinsons to
me. Very poetically and bravely delivered. Not like that namesake who sells death policies to the aged, and made a million bucks from asking questions to people who want to sell books |

Well, Spikers - as always you give us
something to think about ...... or dread.
I trust these finely tuned arthritic phrases
are of the imagination?
