Nursery Rhymes

Madds

Your wounds are

Deeper than your skin;

Your scars litter your body

From brain to heart,

Head to toe.

 

(Head, shoulders

knees and toes,

knees and toes.

your child self dances

to this song, the sweet

oblivion towards the bruise

on her arm from

her father hitting her.

the teacher

has no clue.)
