No longer call it
“Stranger danger”–
Now let’s talk about the
“Tricky adults” who chat up
Eight year olds and their
Baby brothers outside
Emergency rooms (while a
Mother’s ovary bursts)–
Who beg for
Help from babies.
Two boys as vulnerable on a
Bench as hatched
Sea turtles on a seagull’s
White sand buffet.
Tricky adults who
Make the news, whose story of
Bathroom lures and
Baby boys on a bench
Build a wall of
Distraction while so many
April fools
Saran Wrap themselves
In Russian-cooked
Rhetoric, to
Enlist in the cause of
A new greatness:
Terror for all;
Justice for some;
Answers for no one.
