the window is closing

in a way,
i guess i understand why
young people
don't want to work.
who wants to flip burgers
for a living,
or mop halls,
or paint,
or tack on a new roof.
why sweat
when the checks
keep coming in, when
mommy and daddy
still love and adore you.
showering you
with gifts.
yes, at 35, the window
is closing,
but not yet.
