once I turn eighteen
once I turn eighteen
there will be a moment of silence
as I just think about how I might be thrown
into
a cage of all-around bulldogs called
military.

it wasn't a choice
it was a will of force by someone
I hate very dearly.

As much as many say to love them,
the rabbits called parents
only think so much about how I might suffer
in such a man scout camp.

once i turn eighteen
i will start betting on not my own
risks but that horserace
everyone used to holler about.

personally I have no interest in
betting at all.

however, it is only for
the experience, I believe
betting can do so much and say
very little
about what you are actually
willing to risk.

risk the world
risk your money
risk your life.
and eventually something
much more precious that just might
as well kill your number of age.

once I turn eighteen
having a hand on that Costco card will be of cost.

I see no worth to such cards however
seeing to the fact that my so called
friends can show me the
way not to a meme
but to a pathway to a place
with no cobblestones at all whatsoever.

I expected a gate however I saw something else
that had bright colours and ascending population with an icon.
