The Kids Ain't Alright (Formerly Scoop Him Up) edit #2.1

[ellajam]

The title is the problem for me... what does scoop him up mean? Like dog dirt? Like in a roundup by the authorities? Like water on a ladle? Ice cream?

There a some very good rhymes in this piece - particularly like cry and bitter-lie.

Thanks for reading and for your comments, Jeremy. I am title challenged so I will surely think about this one. I meant scoop like scoop him up in my arms, like a backhoe reaches in and scoops up and removes. I'm not married to it.

I appreciate your time, welcome again.
