It Takes All Kinds

There are all kinds of people who do all kinds of things
Who asked me to join them, sculpt my past.
There are scofflaws who encourage me to take
What my parents would not let me have.
There are slackers who ask for my expertise
and direct it toward disrupting class.
There are lead singers of bands I've never actually seen
Who tell me when it's love, to wait in line.
There are young men who introduce young women, who urge me
To both pursue and ignore the fine.

There are a lot of screw-ups in my past,
But mostly mine.
