I landed lucky
To get a gig
Where I got to
Hide out back
For long stretches.
When I passed
My driving, everyone
Got me a card.
On my 21st "my machine"
Was decorated with
Banners and balloons
And it made me smile.
It wasn't ideal,
But it was the
Best I could of done
With the opportunities
That were available.
For young women
In this area retail or care
Are the main two options.
I did feel fortunate
To just have a job
With full time hours as well.
