I’m too old
for T-shirts.
It hurts me
to say it,
but I don’t want
to look like a hypocrite
or sound like one, too;
but, I am,
and there’s not a lot
that I can do
about the fact.
So, please show tact
when you laugh at my slogan,
and the size of my paunch;
launch into laughter
if you must,
but I’m getting the feeling
that my T-shirt days
are bust.
