Baby sitter

I remember being sixteen

Never been kissed!

Honestly it was just like this!

My eyebrows were plucked

The thinnest!

Naïve and lame;

Really didn’t know the game

Felt so utterly clueless!

Hated that gold filling

Right in the middle

Of my teeth!

Hated my ears;

Stuck out too much

I was too short!

Not sporty enough!

So many problems

I saw mirrored!

Got a casual job

Babysitting!

For both our neighbour’s kids

Nicholas and Fiona

Trying to get a life!
