    growing old
    what now, do you still want your past
    and how would you, if I may ask,
    still believe then those lies of innocence
    now dispelled through your own experience
    delicately masked not to betray your age
    so do you still wish to turn back this page,
    and are you really so shallow and cheap
    that some youthful need is all you seek,
    amongst the blind who now share this pain
    and as if the past could be relived again
    while forgetting that old age has a goal
    to seek within to find ones soul
    and if not a “soul” a simpler wealth
    to reach within to find “oneself”

    ("...ah but I am but your humble servant humans..." replied the goblin appreciating the responses, adding "...if the edit thread receives 15hits, then I will post again, whereupon if it makes yet another 15hits after that then I will post again too, in fact my pace on that thread is ever 15 to 1 now, or a post a day depending on the response I guess...")
