Limbo

When I was younger,

having 7 years of wisdom 

worn proudly on my chest,

I went to a birthday party 

for a neighbor girl,

who was 3 or 4.

And we played limbo.

The whole party, 

and I was the best at it,

and eventually I was told to not participate,

because it wasn\'t fair.

Which it wasn\'t,

but I was also not old enough

to be one of the big kids

So there I was,

playing at my own private game of limbo,

That I still haven\'t won.
