Mid Years (Free verse) by Dovina

After the travails of menopause and before the fogginess of senile dementia comes a lingering sourness of melancholy that mixes with sweet hours of friendship to produce the finest moments of life For men, maybe it comes after the keen edge of erectile imperative and before virility's illusion turns into a joke Then it's about relationship as we said it was all along but never believed

Women don't see it that way. They think being in a relationship is some kind of emotional mind-meld, where they are "totally accepted" by the other person. They like this idea because their emotional spines are too floppy to support them, having been repeatedly weakened over the years by such habits as:

* Watching Sex & The City
* Thinking crying is beautiful
* Making scrapbooks
* Taking pictures of their friends in staged-to-look-spontaneous poses, and then putting them in Purple Ronnie frames
* Consuming all forms of Purple Ronnie merchandise
* Writing on scented paper with scented "gel pens"
* Believing they are special
