chinasky sweatshirt and a grumpier old man attitude in my tendencies i'd bear this white belly in the sun careening down or lounging on hills until red like a drunk in the face-- swilling down sips from paper-bagged bottles and belching decidedly unladylike while not giving a flying... high, leering at younger boys i'd be thrown in jail over if moms had their say (dads secretly pine and cheer me on with their eyes) i'll say i'm 30 now until it really happens in preparation of that culture shock, and in the meanwhile, i'll hold tight to all of my role models.
