The play of children in the shadow of power

Younger

and Younger,

seduced by the

promise of play

the children are

marched under the

blankets of power

A little fun and games

under a

measuring gaze

the violence of

the marks he leaves in

his book, that damn book

in his hand is saved

for an undisclosed

"later"-

For the way the ball bounces

is not in the throwing

but in its being caught
