Whatever that Is

It’s a slippery thing

on a plastic laminated card

with numbers I can’t remember,

like the numbers on the phone

I leave behind on the table,

That slippery thing

that laughs in the mirror

as it changes from child

to a woman headed

for a pickleball court

or a retirement home.

Take your pick.
