Didn’t want to be single at 50
Complaining all the time about change
Didn’t want to be around people
Pronouncing the word “multicultural”
As an obscenity that begins with the word “mother”
Didn’t want to hear the phrase
“violating the natural order of things”
If I objected to bigotry and transphobia
Didn’t want to hear further justifications
For Donald Trump’s vulgar greedy warmongering
Didn’t want to be hushed up
If I said I liked certain new movies
Just as much as Old Hollywood classics
Didn’t want to hear discussions at Bob’s Big Boy Burbank
About Alan Ladd being superior to Leo DiCaprio
Didn't want to remain single at 60
And have women steer clear of me
Because of spending decades
In the company of aging men
Who preferred to remain boys
