You microwave your own meals for a change.
In this dank morning, first time you're voting:
not yet drinking age, but minimum wage
is a distant memory, and you might be drafted.
A life of vaccines and resumes awaits
but your defining marks will remain:
your R.E.M. blaring, your pubescent daring
to call your mom by her first name.
And thank you camus for the form.

ah loved the part about calling Mom by her first name...
Question: Do 18 year olds still listen to REM? I don't really have much contact with this age group at this point.

ah ha! can't argue with that! Well we have something in common besides poetry thenpseudonymous wrote:haha. This 18 year old does. Prolly not commonly though, no.
I think my 4 year old is gifted. He has already started calling me Jennifer.
Already a punk. This is why they don't draft 4 year olds. Too undisciplined.
