Never Take Candy from a Stranger or Maybe You Should...

Grandma told me
she remembers turning 35
standing at the sink
doing dishes
thinking 1/2 my life is over...
who would've thought
21 years plus,
and now at 91
suddenly she is old

and at 35,
i don't think of my life as
1/2 over
i'm just surprised each day
at how much i don't know

not much about
anyone
who
how
this
that
normal
not

And Grandma knows
it's almost time...
