This town is a child’s toy,
and I’m stuck with the sounds
of Sitcom Syndrome.
The hum of laughter
caught in my ear,
but no punch line
held any good humor.
The building blocks of life
for toddlers to topple down.
While adults frown
at toys left on the floor.
Couldn’t take anymore
A foot step't, a child crept
On a sharp edge.
Couldn’t take anymore,
Legos left, parents wept
at baby booboo’s
and first lessons learned.
