You
My dear
Are nowhere near
Serious
Yet
And not in the way you might think
Serious with a scowl or wrinkled brow
No
Serious in the way
That children play
Engaged in mobiles and legos
Lost
In lands of their own making
Other worlds
Fake
Yet
All too real
In the eyes and mind of a child
Yes
Serious
Absolutely so
