Cosas de la edad

You were a child when in this garden
you whimpered on April afternoons.
On the grass, your wet back
and your ideals far from here.
And what does it matter?
If they are age things
And what does it matter?
If they are age things.

Now you have grown
You are a sea wolf
who still hasn't learned to row.
A strange being at 15
A boy, a man,
a cool guy.

And what does it matter?
If they are age things
And what does it matter?
If they are age things

Because people invent
a hundred thousand reasons to make you change?
An elegant dude
Keep going.
Mind in the 20th century
Medieval heart.

And what does it matter?
If they are age things
And what does it matter?
If they are age things
