Before age

This is an attempt to translate http://roadtonow-here.blogspot.com/2018/07/avant-lage.html


Reinventing
oneself
it's like time that renews itself
after having lived it’s history.
To see its own decline
is comparable to watch
a world that chooses
to walk counter-clockwise.
I'm talking about disappointment after
lost battles,
too slow small steps forward,
less triumphant
than before.

Getting upset
with others;
about the displayed incompetence of
those in power,
the lack of,
willingness within
a satisfied generation.

And then that body
which deconstructs
like the earth that was offered to us.
The roar of volcanoes and tempest winds
alert me,  awaken my senses,  but
how much longer 
before age?
