Spilled Youth
Birthing babies,
Barely able-
To have that beer,
Peer to peer,
I think it’s disgusting,
Understand,
I don’t go through it,
I am much too wise for that,
No children here,
Your life is no longer yours,
It is theirs,
The kin,
No points to win,
Popping out,
Parent unprepared,
Blame yourself,
Not birth control,
For your spilled youth.
