Why They Gotta Grow Up For?

"Grandpa!
How come
you look
sad every
once in a
while? Like
right now,
you got a
look on
your face
like you're
malunkot,
masubo, 'n
muyeng?"
"It's cuz you're starting to look like a big girl now...
I can almost picture you as a 10 year old asking for
a cel phone. I can also see you as a 18 year old asking
me to take you somewhere with your friends. And I
can almost see you with some knucklehead putting a
ring on your finger on your wedding day. And really,
I just want you to be a baby forever. I want you and
your Magpiong nose to be a baby forever."
