kept us
mice in order, in lines,
well
behaved
children of the sixties,
early sixties,
parenting
of a different kind.
our hair
combed,
shirts buttoned and tucked
in.
our shoes with a shine.
we were
good children
for the most part, we listened,
we obeyed,
did our homework,
and behaved,
we stayed in line,
even if other things
in life
were on our minds.
