a wish that can never be granted
carmen sandiego 2006 (Angers)
A world hidden in the void
where species are living in harmony
is what some people dream of
and are wishing it was reality
being alone in the middle of night
dancing without looking around
singing like the world belongs to them
but they can't
they can't cause monsters are walking around
are looking for preys
and these people have this gaze
those monsters use their tongues as weapon
with mouths wide open
they're never satisfied
always hungry
they come as a pair scisors
who people use without worrying
but once everybody lowers it guard
it begins chasing around
from making a cut in paper
to making a piano out of tune
beware of them, and never lose guard
cause when the door is open
not always the good person enters
About this poem
it talks about how judging people stops shy people for being their real selves on public
