What do you want to be when you grow up?
It's a favorite to ask kids.
It's a favorite to ask teenagers.
But with each time we get asked, the seriousness of it stacks higher,
Like a jenga tower, each block so precariously placed
And always in danger of toppling to the ground
And forcing you to start at square one,
Building your dreams again on your hands and knees.
