There lived once a married couple
but then their children grew old.
Everything was falling apart in the house.
Their hinges grew rusty and weary
and fell off like doorknobs.
The sky was falling through like
Shattering sockets.
And rotten cement caked the air.
I was once fond of running about
the clean cut grass and making a playground of the four walls.
Now mummy doesn't take out the splinters anymore
Hi and Bye is elementary.
