little girl curious
so little girl followed
little girl spiraling down a hole
bright hues scream at her
laughter & fright holds her as she crosses paths with the unknown
rumbling pounds at her little belly
too trusting so she eats
small too small
big too big
she is now alone
little boy spotted
crazy & mad they call him
an out cast she is
accepting is he
crazy together they shall live
darkness falls
the night forces her eyes closed
awaken by the rays of fire washing thy face
she talks of the wondrous tale
truth? ha! lies!
now she lays on cushions
strapped in white
