Sugar High

There was a sudden lull in the day when all the children sat still without play. They gathered round the barbecue straining to get hamburger, hot dogs, one or two. The adults spent the hours oblivious as suddenly each child grew more mischievous. All the adults busy drinking or cooking, with no one really looking. The kids soon became quite rambunctious little pubescent vultures spurred by compunctions, ravenous beneath the glances of their parents, they ate indulgently on cake, ice cream, candy and cookies aberrant. Then came the wild uncontrolled displays of an influx of childhood uncontrolled craze and foolishly each parent wondered why children wantonly indulged in the magical sugar high.
