the season you lost your innocence it rained exceptionally hard
and all the kindergarteners that would come over to sing and swing and chant in the yard
started to frown in your direction
or half-smile with a cloudy membrane sheltering their eyes to you, or so it seemed
and people would walk their dogs with a tighter leash, afraid that they could smell
your ruin
ing body, plastered in a cold, hardened defeat...uneasy sweat
and you took off that child-like headband you'd been wearing for months on end
a little worn now, that terrible periwinkle satin and lace
too Lo Li Ta for liking
now that you finally knew what it was like to be a ********* in the lion's den
