Soul Destroyer
things are fuzzy
down in the world—
everything looks
really bad.
kids are out
before they’ve grown,
just knocking
things about.
it’s the human people
that scream—
locking them up,
throwing away the light,
never to be seen.
what if they
smashed their world—
broke them up
deep inside?
would you think the same?
would you call it humane?
or is it inhuman?
James Garratt – Sunday 28th March 1993
