NOSTALGIA

Sometimes I stare,
at the dusty trophies
The innocent times,
are of distant memory

Worries were no more than
an occasional pimple
and catching the bus on time

I try to think,
but Freud, Schopenhauer, and Nietzsche
argue constantly
in a cacophany
tick tick tick tick tick tick,
Hi, I'm Ed Bradley
and I'm Andy Rooney
Tonight,
we expose the real truth of penile implants.
