Grown ups

/ a rebellious child’s view

‘Grown ups’;

They think they know everything.

They think they own everything.

They think they’re in charge of everything.

Especially me!!!

And with their larger bodies they make me do what they what me to do.

They try to tell me what to say.

They try to control me in everyway.

And to think - I’m going to be one of them

when ‘I’ grow up.

‘Grown ups’!
