Innocence by Ann Mosher

Innocence

by Ann Mosher

I look young they say, for my age

Not twenty-one at all but just a babe

Too innocent for drinks and smokes

and love

But though I do not drink I have been

drunk

And though I do not smoke I have

lit fires

And though I have not loved

I've learned totouch

So while I may be young for twenty-one

I am too old to be called

innocent
