Ever noticed how when you get to my age you need to hold things further away to read them, and then the text gets too small. There are two solutions bigger print or glasses. Of course sometimes we just try without either. If I wear my glasses I can't see anything more than a few feet away so for poetry performance it has to be the big print:
Squinting,
me?
I
don’t think so!
It’s
not me
It’s
just the light
It’s
too dim
Wrong
sort of bulb
My
eyes are fine
Reading
at arms length
I
don’t think so!
It’s
not my age
It’s
just the print
Poor
quality
Wrong
type of paper
My
eyes are fine
Using
big print, me?
I
don’t think so!
It’s
not me
It’s
just the font
Big
by nature
Default
style
My
eyes are fine
Got
a prescription, me?
I
don’t think so!
It’s
not my eyes
It’s
just the optician
Has
to say something
Earn
his pay
My
eyes are fine
Giving
in, me?
I
don’t think so!
It’s
not my eyes
The
glasses?
They
look cool
Distinguished
My
eyes are fine
Going
grey, me?
I
don’t think so!
Can’t
see it myself
My
eyes are fine
