little johnny was a poor sad thing his father was a prideful brute when johnny slumped his shoulders his father tied the golden wire around his arms and held him up high when johnny dropped his head his father tied the wire the strands of johnny’s thinning hair and held him up high when johnny’s eyes filled with tears his father glued his eyelids shut when johnny frowned and shouted shouted for help because he didn’t feel alright his father stitched johnny’s mouth closed into a permanent smiled but no matter what johnny’s father did, johnny just didn’t have the will to live
