Little child
Put your hands
Over your ears
Do not listen
To the hateful
Screams

Little child
Close your
Innocent eyes
Do not watch
As flawless
Porcelain shatter
Against
The polished floor

Little child
Hold back your
Precious, bitter
Tears
For little children
Do not
Cry

Little child
Close your mouth
Do not plead
For them
To stop
For they
Will not hear
Your quiet
Sorrowful
Voice

Little child
Put your arms
Around yourself
For another’s
Loving touch
Is too far
Out of reach
