Young and Dumb

When I was young
we had rock fights

one side defending the tree fort
the other on attack

the projectile flew through the air
object known but with little care

on it went for hours on end
damn the intruder, this we must defend

till someone got hit
and blood was shed

all part of the game
the pain was all the same

till the grown ups got involved
go home or your parents will be called

so we scattered like roaches in the light
but all told it was a good night
