It’s here!
Boy, did it come fast.
Out under the sun
And around it for twenty-five years;
A whole quarter century.

A Snap!
Oh, there are changes about.
Dancing on the floor
And bounding across it in antalgic gait;
A swish with confidence.

Oh dear!
Oof, that was a mistake.
Wallowing in pits
And grieving moments of the road behind
A dose of folly.

Oh well!
Welp, got to move on.
Here above the dirt
And amongst those whose hearts beat;
A bouncy grown woman
