This girl smoked 14 cigarettes in
a span of one and a half hours
"Yeah, but they're slim," she says
"But they're still fourteen."
"Yeah, but so am I," she says.
"But... you look at least eighteen..."
"I know. Smoking helps, doesn't it?"
"Um..."
"Say, you wanna go to sum' club right now?"
"Oh, sorry but, it's Saturday and... You know, there's
church tomorrow morning. I've to be up.
How about you come with me though? And
my grandma."
She laughed
Lit another cigarette.
Daydreaming and then, maybe, writing a poem about it. And that's my life.
Daydreaming as a profession 
Great poem! 🖤

And in 14 more years she will look 40 – and won’t think that is so neat.

Yep. Yet some people find far more pleasure in dying young than aging peacefully.

There’s some really well written dialogue in this piece. The first few lines pack a real punch and really stick with the reader through the rest of it.

Character implications far beyond the word count. Intriguing, and a little sad.
