Beer in a Can

He offers me a can of lite beer
Unaware of the imports
That I hold dear

I suppose boys this young
Still drink beer from a can
My first sip stung

We talked about classes
Movies and hip hop
My second beer depresses

My reaction--surprising
Beer in a can used to be wonderful
The tinny taste appetizing

When did I stop liking
Beer in a can?
Adulthood changes everything
