The Ship of Theseus

Replace the plugs,
refasten the bolts,
I will do my homework,
take the tests
and grow from a boy into a man,
meet new people,
change the oil,
buy new tires and watch TV,
I will get a job and vote for mayor,
change the wipers and fix the A/C,
and as the years pass on by
you will begin to see
that I am no longer the person
you once knew me to be.
