Failure to Break Skin

 I saw you in a plexiglass cage,

at a place that's supposed to be 

fun for every age.


The rapidly blinking lights

are meant to entice;

to brainwash a bystander

so that they waste money

trying to free you from life.


Oh,

scam in plush dog form.

You’re just soft enough

to deflect the jaws of the claw:

the monster that steals all your gold.

Criminals have become so bold.
