Passion Fruits

While others
built with wood
I was making toys of cardboard tubes
and paper clips,

blonde shickza
taking me to her bedroom
and making me late
for fourth period math class,

and teacher thinking I went
to the devil,
wrestling match adventure,
the best experiences

were in the games.
When the others were
risking everything,
close to death

in the throws of passion,
I didn't dare
go after
the sweetest fruits.
