Hardly Legal
my aunt lived in an apartment with a sickly tree next to it
crowded between two other lots in the middle of the city
there were men around and I got to meet my cousins
she was younger than me and he was older and I related
she wanted to show me something
we went upstairs and hid under the bed
where there was a hardly legal magazine
She knew about because someone had shown her
later mom told me about how much she hated her sister
but I already knew why
