Too Old To Die Young by Mitja Lovše

Poem

‘Fuck you, Hüsker Dü!’
An old man aging
in front of that store
he used to visit.

‘Fuck you, Ramones!’
He keeps thinking
the past shall return,
if he wishes well.

‘Fuck you, Radiohead!’
He tries to outrun
the sight of the fanboys
with their own keys.

‘Sir, go home, please.’
‘Fuck you, old age.’
