Birthday

 Birthday


“Wisdom does not necessarily come with age.

Sometimes age just shows up all by itself.”

--Tom Wilson.


Today

is my birthday,

and

it is Flag Day,

and

it is the birthday

of Trump,

which applies

a smudge

upon my joy;


but I share it

with Boy George

and actor

Sullivan Stapleton.


So

wave your flags

and forget about

the Human Stain.

Live it UP, Bro! (Too bad about the Trump thing, though). I share mine w/ Thomas Edison and Jennifer Aniston.

Oh, how ironic! You share your birthday with many great people. Don't let a little orange smudge spoil it. Happy Birthday!

Oh, I love what you did at the end there—that is an excellent book.

Happy birthday, Glenn.
