what about Amy

when you're a dopey kid,
basically raised by wolves,
with no parental guidance,
you have no clue, no idea
what you want to be when
you grow up.
while so many other kids,
have their whole lives lined
up. carpenters, firemen,
teachers, lawyers, doctors.
how do they know this at
twelve years old.
i just wanted to go play
ball, lick an ice cream cone
and figure out a way to
kiss Amy who lived next door.
