There is no feigning love Only a light switch little boys toggle in a big room lined with the belongings of the ones who left it last Tents made from the frayed and bleached garments of playmates who had to return home for supper,but not before changing the light bulb. That is not the fear, foundations made of bone covered in soot from flames whispered out with secrets Nails jagged and loose and I can't afford repairs Paper thin walls with dixie cups full of crayons
