Downloaded To Get Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Youth is felt with a rush and wish,
Always to catch the first wave...
Of a love to fantasize.
Undelayed to make what is craved,
More sense.
And if it keeps a suspense,
That desire is raised...

~Mommy,
I'm being watched as I walk to school.
And mommy?
I think I being followed,
By that old man you say is a fool.~

*You kids and your imaginations.
Wanting to appear older.
And looking over your shoulder,
To see if anyone notices it.
It's probably someone making sure,
You get to school safely, dear.*
