Boys Will Be Boys
Nothing wrong with play, but some people disregard all for their moment with their toys.
I.
Boys will be boys
in their thoughtless joys.
Never taking time
when playing with their toys.
II.
They rip and tear
with no care.
Never bothering about the mess
as they leave nature bare.
III.
For them, fun in the sun
is second to none.
They’ll blow off work
never getting much done.
IV.
They’ll make a bet
And end up in debt.
But ignore it,
tuning out with a headset.
IV.
No pity when they fall
for they’ve ignored the call.
They never grew up
While having a ball.
V.
But, boys will be boys
stuck in their idyll joys.
They’ll lose in life
before they lose their toys.

I took my son and niece to Gori, a small town in Georgia where Joseph Stalin was born. They talked me into visiting the Stalin's Museum, the largest in the post-Soviet space. I had resisted going there because I just can't stand the monster and know enough about him, or so I thought.
