Getting

Rusty dusty
and musty
cheap patina 
untouched thing
damp dark 
and forgotten 
like bicycles 
books and 
precious diaries 
once ridden 
with gleeful 
abandon once
prized possessions 
once the 
keeper of 
forbidden secrets 
and desires 
these three
siblings two
brothers and 
a sister 
children of 
getting old
