Boys

Like a dog mostly demanding
A sickness, annoying, a head ache
Like a cat, soft, just wanting some attention
A joke, a good laugh
Like a smile, they want to make you smile
The hiccups, you just want them to go away
Like make-up, on and off, their expressions changing
A brother, “Are you OK?”
Like geometry, just another variable
Like a boy, always moving, never stopping, just going…
