Live Like Kids
Kids are funny.
They wish to have broken bones
Just so their friends can write on their obnoxious neon cast.
They wish for their eyesight to be bad
So they can wear glass discs wrapped in plastic as an accessory.
They pretend the floor is lava
So they can jump on the furniture knowing full well their parents will yell at them later.
They will put on a fashion show
So their dad can give a monotone reply while he moves his head trying to watch the game.
They will stom to their rooms after getting yelled at
Just so they can slam the door but stop it right before it slams into the frame.
They will refuse to take a jacket
Just for them to be freezing and have their moms give you an "I told you so" face.
Kids do what they want and live through the repercussions
But kids are happy...
