Crushed.


I see a face.
The youthful face of joy. 
I see the hands of a clock. 
The wooden fences around the farmhouse. 

The theme for tonight's dance is macabre. 
Windows sneer with contempt. 
A sinister, jovial and anxious parade 

I see truth, baked in the sun. 
Crushed beneath the feet of hard working men. I feel afraid of sunlight. 
I can be so easily blinded. I can hear a crunch.

Joy's hands wrap around the apple tree
She doesn't give fruit she takes it. 

My, what a nice day it is outside.
