Normally
Cookies
Are seen as sweet
As something
For a child to enjoy
Or at least that's the stereotype
And normally
Wine
Is seen as bitter
And something
For grown ups to enjoy
Or at least that's the stereotype
But
Children are now drinking wine
And
Adults are eating cookies
Adults look the other way about the children
With wine
And children look the other way about parents
Eating cookies they can't have
Why have things turned around?
Why have things changed?
Maybe because the children saw adults
Using wine
To dull pain
And so they tried it
Even though the aftermath
Was also painful
It was less painful than the rest of the world
And maybe because parents realized that if they put *** in their cookies
The children would stop stealing
And sneaking them
But both have backfired
Because now the children have more problems than before
