The tread of tires
abruptly come to a halt
after a brief bike ride.
To the side,
so picturesque:
A towering high-rise
of broken windows.
Broken dreams
of haunted delight
pass as adolescence
takes hold
with mild curiosity.
Unseasoned Danger
is harmless, right?
Mischief never thought clarity
could fall through the floor,
but curiosity
could take no more.
Questions, questions,
so many questions
left unanswered.
Only one child left to explore
this ghostly house with power,
character, and the might
to befuddle even the most
innocent minds.
Unwind to find
an abandoned story
left for history
despite:
The very right
to stand and collapse
on demand.
