Warning Signs


Do Not Look

Is what the sign reads

But what is so horrendous

As to heed warning?

 

So you look inside

Just a small peek.

It was a mistake

to disobey

 

Everything with reason. 

No superfluous joys.

You cannot be injured 

By what you are unaware of

 

Post a gaurd at the door

So none shall pass.

Make him strong and steady.

Make him naive. 

 

Pretend you do not know. 

Overlook the signals

Ignorance is bliss. 

Until it is gone.
