"Beware
I bite"
-- Luna Miguel, Cave Lunam
i am small here
so be my friend
you thought this was a school
but I made it a playground
i didn’t come here to learn
all these golden things now gone
Etan Patz, with his blond hair
the Beaumont children, and their blond hair
JonBenêt Ramsey, and her blond hair
me, and my blond hair
there are no second chances
for canines and cavities
this is a children's revolution
a vivian revolt on a playground
that wasn't built for you
with a slide made of broken bones
a ball pit of baby teeth
and monkey bars suffering from osteoporosis
bruise those kneecaps
don’t break them
do you see me
i am out here now
beyond the fence
watching your back
turned towards me
i have years now to study it
i am patient
this much abandon takes time
for your ruin value will outlast us both
because we built this thing to fail
and even this town, a swamp,
a mire forgotten
will one day become
a playground,
so let this grave rest shallow,
leave the depth unexplored,
