Ha, ha! You missed one of my teen-aged granddaughter's reactions: Blissful ignorance! "Like, totally...Isn't that boy with tight jeans cute!" (The other one is 'all aboard' with Chaz/Chop and the worst of BLM. Ugh! 'Youth these days.' lol). Smiles, Gershon

I would not want to be a teenager today, feeling blessed that I grew up pre-Internet age. This is powerfully penned in its succinctness. It is lovely to meet your poetry Anais, welcome to the soup! xomo
