He tried to be quick,
He shot hoops with young guys,
And ruptured a disc."
"Middle-aged Mervin
Went to the surgeon
To affix to his scalp some new hair…
But when he awoke
He looked worse than a joke
And wished that he'd left his head bare."
"AARP,
Do you take me for a fool?
People, when they're fifty,
Don't retire as a rule."
