until we hit a certain
age, we
are careful with our words,
our opinions,
keeping
them to ourselves
for the most part
although some may leak out
to a wife
or husband, or
close friend.
but we stick to the politeness
of not talking
about politics
or religion.
we censor ourselves
in conversation,
careful not to offend.
but then
you hit a certain age
and you say whatever
the hell is on your mind.
it all comes
pouring out,
finally, you get to say
exactly what you mean.
no longer do you hold it in.
