the ungrown children

is not the world full
of ungrown

children.
learned in the crib to cry
for
whatever needs that need
meeting.

no matter how achieved,
by
charm,

by lie.

children in dresses, off to
work,

men in suits
and ties.

children never leaving
the playground.

pretending day in, day
out at
what they

perceive life to be,
mirroring it all

with their childlike eyes.
