better safe?

better safe than sorry? such a lame aphorism. seems more like better safe AND sorry.
all those things i didn't do - jump off that bridge, go out with that psycho guy, try that new food.
chances only come this way once & regrets last a lifetime.

aging/ageing/ er ...getting older

there is a girl inside this well-used body. i may look 60+ w/ sags & bags & wrinkles. my attempts at rejuvenation may fill me briefly with hope. my plans to spend time at a gym may seem briefly real. my slathering on of creams, cremes, serums, & lotions may be briefly optimistic.
but a quick pass by the mirror always tells the external truth.
yet...
a brief flirtation on twitter, a passing handsome face, a rebellious thought can send me deep inside to the girl who dances 'til the sweat drips into her eyes.
if only she could be seen by others
