Instant Pandemonium

Reality can be harsh sometimes

There was no longer that need to look,

they would close the book,

quiet at first, no sound,

the child found

partially buried in a ditch,

the mother’s screams reached still a higher pitch,

reality crawling into the cold,

keeping the body from total decay,

sanity would fold,

as people were curious in a morbid way,

creating instant pandemonium,

grieving mother,

and the police with nothing much to say.
