I used to be a grown-up
Made reasonable choices
Stopped at all the red lights
Made careful 90 degree turns
No accelerating on curves
No swerving
Those days are gone.
Now i'm a wild kid on a
Big Wheel
Rumbling plastic
Careening down theDriveways of life
Forgetting those restraints of
Caution, time, good sense
Ignoring those calls forDinnertime
Flinging myself over the
Bumps and
Crying
When i get hurt.
