This Too Shall Passs

People hate that i flip two cigarettes Upside down in each pack for luck, But I hate that people notice When you gain three pounds, But not when you buy a new hat. I’ve been told that the way I sleep With one leg draped over The person lying next to me Is annoying, But I think it’s annoying When people tell me I look pretty, But only when I paint my face. I’ve heard that old men Like to touch the girls who work late at bars, But I want to know Why they never kiss the women they married fourty-two years ago. I’ve noticed that mothers teach their daughters That it’s rude to refuse a hug From an uncle they’ve met three times, But forget to teach them That they aren’t obliged to kiss The boy who paid for dinner.

It’s like this … All your life you’re yellow. Then one day you brush up against something blue, the barest touch, and voila, the rest of your life you’re green.

If you could go anywhere in the world right now would it be to a ‘where’ or to a ‘who?
