The Juvenile in Me

i am an explosive adventurer, with invading emotions

The Juvenile in Me
Teenagers on the Street

The Juvenile in me
i’m an adult mind
ambushed in a teen’s body.
a revolutionary with
irrational causes,
bewildered and misguided.

fluctuating desires
that have no name
and
lots of sweethearts
who reject my
persistent game.

i am an explosive adventurer,
with invading emotions
and mercenary intentions.

an excess of vitality
and a shortage of time
and adult reality.

what a time to be alive.
i am a teenage rebel
with one goal on
my mind-winning.
