They froze
their misguided ways
with popcorn and marijuana
the potent
reminders of adolescent feelings
now put in the sack bin
of adulthood
the peeling paint
on an old two story
suburban home
the faded smeared hopes
and dreams of turtles
and guinea pigs
their faces are pinched
and stretched
Clothing piles
in the back bedroom
an old Chevy in the
garage
