Valentine at 22

by Kaya Rene Brewer - Aries

I foolishly believed I was wise
until I turned 22 and discovered
that I am learning more now than I was
when i was young.
I foolishly believed I was wise
until Valentine's Day
when I learned that if you give a guy
a coupon that says,
"Good for one night of hot sex in a sleazy motel"
his girlfriend will somehow find out
and you'll understand that 
wisdom is not yours to posess - 
not at 22.
