Time Warp GirlMaureen ThorsonFourteenth birthday, y'all! Mom In the Cutlass Cierra cruises round town picking up Michelle the Good Girl, Faith Mercado, and Snaggle- Toothed Andrea. Welcome to the Fifties, girls, as seen on Nick at Nite. Have a homemade cookie. The cake Is homemade, too. We'll all go bowling: Everybody gets a root beer float. Oh Yes, my mom is home my dad goes To work and everyone's still married. Nobody lives with us but us. I might As well be singing doo wop I might As well be setting my beehive I might As well be trying on a girdle is what Their eyes say, their mouths too busy Sucking down their root beers. They never Would have believed it if they hadn't Seen it for themselves. Maureen Thorson Read Bio Author Discusses Poems |
