my 14 year old
younger sister
comes to me
asking for advice about
boys

i'm flattered she thinks
i understand anything about
boys

does she think
my late drunk nights
dancing
kissing
touching
boys
in stranger's homes
makes me an expert

does she think
my long afternoons
chilling
smoking
driving around town with
boys
means I  comprehend how to keep a relationship

does she think
being dropped off
at home
by some of the
boys
a little too late
a little too early
elucidates my ability to understand
boys

I'm sorry
little sister
but I don't understand
boys
anymore than you.
