Need to Want Less

Part of an old series and unfortunately still relevant. Age doesn't erase impulses.

--
When I was 8 I wanted a puppy.

When I was 10 I wanted parachute pants.

When I was 12 I wanted an Olgivile perm.

When I was 14 I wanted a boy named Robbie.

When I was 16 I wanted a car.

When I was in my 20's I wanted to make bad choices.

Now I want everything.

I only need enough to survive.
