Thinking of the Children

/ /

Americans love children the idea of

Sometimes the execution……sometimes one

-On-one we……know which children to steer clear of

We love them……when they four and cold alone

 

Walk shuffling through the dark in……footies to

America’s car in the drive-thru line and ask

Do you know where my daddy is……we do

Child trust us we will……find his body task

 

Us with the task……and we enraged will love

Our children……temporarily and pull

Them close as if they each……child were the moth

-Chewed blanket we……found in our mother’s hall

 

-way closet when we threw away her things

And hold them close until we smell their stink

We love our……children while the singer sings

About their fathers beating them……the link

 

Disappeared or we would have given money

But hearts are money……so we heart the song

The cutest kitten shivers and has runny

Eyes……or at least it can’t retract its tongue

 

And will die smiled-at……love is smiles and cry

-ing……oh the big-eyed kid whose big eye runs

We love that kid those kids heart……each sick eye

And we have tear gas for the healthy ones
