Flash and Go

Their eyes give away their youth
Smiles that shoot the room as girls appear.
What can they do to impress?

Turn on the charm as best they can
Girls will test their limits.
Silliness is not yet beyond their scope.

Speaking in tongues that only youth can understand
Girls acknowledge their existence.
Perhaps they have a chance...

Quickly they move from subject to subject
Girls will giggle their secret approval.
All the while...protesting.

Life is difficult in the Flash and Go.
Girls to be attended
Youth, the true Aphrodisiac.

Thanks, Michael. I wrote this one evening while watching some high school students at a fast food restaurant having fun. The guys were flustered and the girls were on the tease. Oh to be that age again...
