"Old Fighter "
“Old Fighter”
I had skin like leather and the diamond-hard look of a cobra
I was born blue and weathered but I burst just like a supernova
I could walk like Brando right into the sun
Then dance just like a Casanova
With my blackjack and jacket and hair slicked sweet
Silver star studs on my duds like a Harley in heat
When I strut down the street I could feel its heartbeat
The sisters fell back and said "Don't that man look pretty
(Lyrics “Hard to be a Saint in the City” Bruce Springsteen )
I take blood thinners to keep my blood from clotting and blowing up my heart and brain, last night I woke up 6 times to pee, the arthritis in my left knee makes me walk up the stairs one foot and one stair at a time like a toddler.
