"If I knew then what I know now"... At a certain age it makes you cringe. All the things you'd have done or said Are lost in the "lunatic fringe" As a child, the world seemed important What "they" said or "they" did was, "It" You were just being the child that you were While the powers-that-be spilled their shit! Various stations while growing gave you comfort A kind ear or call meant they KNEW! Those "elders" who made you think they knew "more" You now know were just as STUPID as you! Now, after years as you ponder And wonder what EVER made sense The night-mare comes true Now you "know" what you "knew" But without any recompense.Birth sign: Pisces
