Her (Actual) Words, Not Mine



"Daddy," she said,
"Whenever you're alone,
And you're locked in a cage,
I can open it up
With a special key.

It's just a pretend cage."

Don't worry if the mask you made
At Brandon's party falls apart
From cheap construction long before
Your interest starts to fade.

You don't need it to be my superhero, kid.
Unlock this pretend cage? You just did.
