In the suburb it only takes a certain lens To see that not all is as it pretends The mind is so quickly warped by life And the pain and the darkness and strife For example, the wind will carry a kite Such innocence on display but try with might And you will see that this scene without a care Is so different than we think, so hear. The childrens’ exclamations echo in the air Easily taken as that of a terrified Baudelaire As if Reversed by some ungodly curse What once was joy now turned for worse And the wind of course Represents the taking of life by force As life does in the end Everything will beneath death, bend. And red the kite is even as tragic as Les Mis For that is the color we bleed And bleed we will Indeed. So heed my words reader dear, heed Everything is not what it seems You may see things one way But I see differently this day.

A Suburb
In the suburb it only takes a certain lens To see that not all is as it pretends The mind is so quickly warped by life And the pain and the darkness and strife For example, the wind will carry a kite Such innocence on display but try with might And you will see that this scene without a care Is so different than we think, so hear. The childrens’ exclamations echo in the air Easily taken as that of a terrified Baudelaire As if Reversed by some ungodly curse What once was joy now turned for worse And the wind of course Represents the taking of life by force As life does in the end Everything will beneath death, bend. And red the kite is even as tragic as Les Mis For that is the color we bleed And bleed we will Indeed. So heed my words reader dear, heed Everything is not what it seems You may see things one way But I see differently this day.
