Getting old

 I’m getting old.

The sprinter stands at the starting line, visualizing the race. He sets and explodes off at the gun. I hope I won’t fall or be too dizzy to get from the bed to the bathroom and back at night.

The dancer leaps and spins to Tchaikovsky. I fall on my ass trying to twerk.

The basketball pro jumps, turns and dunks with lots of flair. I stand up, concentrate and hope I can get my legs in my pants without falling over.

I’m getting old.
