Up for grabs

Turning 60 on Palm Sunday. I think it will be better than turning 33 on Good Friday when my marriage was collapsing. I am definitely in a better place these days. The fifties were good, all in all. The sixties are up for grabs.

What is it about entering
A new decade?
This life
Lived in the tens?
If we lived in Base 12
I would still be a few years off
From 60.
In the last ten years
I made more changes
Than in the fifty years prior.
I became a proponent
Of the fifties
An advocate for life
Rewritten
Rediscovered
Re-purposed.
The sixties?
The sixties
Are up for grabs.
