In the basement, toys gathered 'round,
a sight to see.
Rapunzel Barbie,
bald.
Pride radiates
A young artist
Jealous of her recent victim's cut

Snip, snip
Young, golden locks
Stare up from the floor
Naïvety
A terrible trim,
Her greatest masterpiece.

Up the stairs,
Into the kitchen.
A mother shouts.
Shattered glass
Morning coffee- a bitter, sticky puddle
Why, why, why?

Picture day.
