What It's Like Without the Pages

I draw scenery from children's books on my eyes.
What's better than that pixelated party
Pulling you in with princesses and pixi stix.

The scenery that lays beyond these fantasies:
Phantoms in formal wear.
The neighbor kid Timmy with his haunting God
That stands by the side of his bed
With a shadow so dark
A bat can't even see.
Money that mauls people's faces
Until their very being has changed meaning.
The pungent political pig
That bathes in broken vows...

My children's book is better
It looked better from the start.
