TALES

I worry
that some of the information
I grew up with
may well be faulty.

My face never froze in any particular shape
– maybe I’m malleable;
but I think mama lied.

I’ve done tons of Google-research
and seen no evidence
that Abstinence Education
yields the desired results
– but then, neither has Sex Ed.

And, thankfully,
there seems little proof that anyone
in the history of humankind,
has died of boredom
though I suspect tonight
may put that to the test.
