About This Poem

Lolitas

My little darlings you must beware
Of predators like Humbert Humbert
Picking roses before they bloom
Willing to experiment many years too soon

Hold on to your innocence my dear young child
There will be plenty of time to sow oats wild
Grown men who desire twelve year old Lolitas
Will rot in hell with sexual offense repeaters

    I don't know of Humbert Humbert. I imagine it's someone in the news? Good poem, Joe. And today's 12 year olds often do seem like Lolitas!
