Replying to a comment on:
Paedophile at st catherine's (Free verse) by Mona Lisa
Lips purse.
Breathing life into a folded void,
born from dead lips
the euphoric serpent spits
sinking in pearl islands
In a vinyl valley of degradation.
He cries
She squeaks.
Opposite the Infant school
this Darkness dweller
traps your child in binoculars,
playing in clear circles.
Pupils in pupils
Dilated
Fixated
his hands move
with time bomb clocks
two hours till home time.
Draws full of themed candy
Spiderman and Sindy,
Scratches on a hobby horse
By collages of innocence
Immortalized on Polaroid walls of silence.
Next morning
Class register
âSarah Hargreavesâ
âSARAH HARGREAVESâ
is crossed next to ticks.
