My what big eyes you have

when the mind cannot translate the pain ,
then it snaps in two different pieces.
Some times more.
But it's better if the heart breaks.
Because when the heart breaks
It does not affect reality.
The brain can go temporarily insane.
Like putting the person's fear on trial
You'd find a timid animal in a corner defeated
You will get more of a fight out of their temper.


The little man feels special when he drinks
out of styrofoam cups.
Mostly because the cups remind him
of waiting rooms.
In a waiting room everyone is special.
They get a number and then they have
An appointment.
He keeps a cigar box under his bed.
He owns a baseball card and a frog.
When he was growing up he never played sports
But he watched other kids play.

Now he reads books.
They are the only safe place to
hide from the abuse
Like the mouth of a wolf.
You can see the lion personality hidden within.
But you squint your eyes shut
And hope to hide from the pain.


I
Will come back to this later and write more
