Childhood Days

by David Knape

Since you've seen me
I have changed
my facial features
rearranged
another thing that's
really strange
I'm reverting to
my childhood days

Most folks can make
their earnest claim
they've gotten smarter
with their age
but me,
I'm at another phase
reverting to
my childhood days

My kin complain
say act your age
but I'm through acting
at this stage
I'm playing games
I never played
reverting to
my childhood days.
