Counterfeit - Bruce V. Bracken's All-Purpose Poetry Thing

You're forty-seven years old
And you still think you have to buy your love
With poison and gossip

You're seventy years old
And you still think you have to buy your love
With jealousy and deceit

You're forty-six years old
And you still think you have to buy your love
With caprice and spite

You're thirty-six years old
And you still think you have to buy your love
With threats, alcohol, cocaine and knives

Isn't it time for you all to grow up?
