I'm not very good at growing up

i wish my body was a suit.
That i could just take off for a week
and run off
and be free
free from me.
i would sit on the mountains a few days, eat berries
play with the animals. splash and laugh in the clear river
i would go to the prairie and sit in the long long grass.
i would be lost in it,
and no one would care
because I wouldn't be me.
i would go to chicago
just because i've never been.
just a week off
a week to sit
and bury my toes in the sand
and not be me.
lets run away lundsberg
lets drop these hats life as given us
and be five again.
we'll have juice time
and i'll want to be a mermaid in the pool
and you and ammo
will laugh at me
we'll go to vbs and be in it.
not part of it.
lets go.
lets go back to 1990 my faithful friend
