no kid

When I was a kid, being a kid
used to take up all my fucking 
time. It was what I did. I wasn't
playing either. Serious. Well
I mean of course I played games, 
but that was most serious of all 
sometimes. Depends. Anyway 
when I got grown up, I started 
kidding around! Bullshit! It's like 

I forget what it was like being 
a kid. That grim focus on year 

eighteen, saying "just get there. 
All will be great. Ice cream 
anytime, spaghetti every night 
if I want, nobody can stop me 
from anything!" So when I got 

there, it all came true of course. 
And there wasn't anything to be 
serious over except shit that 
happened in the world. Bad. 

Meanwhile in my own life, 
I became sincere instead 
of serious, and I never 
looked back until 

just now
