Don't Get Old

Never let your memories know your real age
nor let your actions assume.
Don't stare from an upstairs window
at a world full of youth
never let the words you utter let you down - don't talk about your afflictions 
don't drop your guard by not knowing the current "hit parade"
for...

for your clothes will pass on those signs 
Chinese whispers - don't let them lie
your choice of sensible footwear 
will declare it to your neighbourhood 
the car you drive knows the truth 
and your choice of apps on your chosen mobile phone says it all - if indeed you have one!
be your age - just...

don't get old
