Puberty's Onslaught Poem by Govind Ramakrishnan

Puberty's Onslaught

Rating: 3.9


The comforting scent
Of this silky talc
Takes me back
To childhood

A dusting of
Johnson's powder,

Core defense
For a pre-teen
Against
The brutal attacks
Of body odor

Now
A more elaborate
Arsenal needed
To wage war,
Ever since
Puberty's onslaught
