Red Reality


A red cape,

A basket full of baked goods,

And a big bad wolf.

 

 

A red sweatshirt,

A backpack full of textbooks,

And a big bad bully.

 

Big teeth,

Big ears,

Big eyes.

 

A mouth that tells lies,

Ears that don’t listen,

And eyes that see only what they want.

 

A hidden grandmother,

An empty basket,

A ripped cape.

 

A secret made to be kept,

A empty friends list,

Exposed skin.

 

Fairytale.

Highschool.
