To go from the men all paused when you walk into the room

to menopause – WOW

just happened too damned fast

being assaulted by unpredictable hot flashes jumping on you without permission

will make you dread this unavoidable condition

Or you can view it as an inevitable gift

WTF, you maybe inclined to say

Meaning that you got to live long enough to experience it

It’s apart of life and you got to graduate to another stage

and you get to turn another page in the book of the living

Your story is still being written
