At Seventeen - (Tribute to Ian Janis)

I learned the truth at seventeen

  • I learned the truth at seventeen
  • That love was meant for beauty queens
  • And high school girls with clear skinned smiles
  • Who married young and then retired.
  • The valentines I never knew
  • The Friday night charades of youth
  • Were spent on one more beautiful
  • At seventeen I learned the truth.
  • And those of us with ravaged faces
  • Lacking in the social graces
  • Desperately remained at home
  • Inventing lovers on the phone
  • Who called to say come dance with me
  • And murmured vague obscenities
  • It isn't all it seems
  • At seventeen.
  • A brown eyed girl in hand me downs
