Quick Love

Jennifer Huffman 1980 (Seattle)

First you're born and open your eyes.
Then next you know it you're
crawling and catching flies.
After that you learn to bark.
And then you can walk to the park.
Then you go to school,
And people might call you a fool.
Then you learn to drive,
And live a free life.
Meet a spouse,
And live together in the same house.
Die and Fly.
