!!FAT LIP!!

Sum 41’s
“Fat Lip”
plays on
the radio
 
I’m in
an Uber
leaving
the hospital
after getting
six stitches in
my head
 
I remember
an old friend
telling me
every time
he hears this song
on the radio
he thinks of me
 
I’m 36 now
When I was
16, maybe then
it was cool
 
Who said
an adult
can’t be
reckless
anymore?     even though
 
now it’s just
pathetic
I’m pathetic
