don’t be, don’t be so cold
bones rust decay and mold
head first, it is what it is
youth lost kicks us to live

Factory children are rarely so well dressed, although the hunger is mirrored in their cheekbones. Prominent. Mummy and daddy kiss his forehead, exclaiming: "A king of peasants!" and he cannot see himself in their shared dark eyes the same way he does staring down the conveyor lines he will rule. Hollow hollow hollow, he thinks, looking through the side of one face and out another's eye socket before slipping down a collar too filthy blue to ever be made as white as his own (out of sight, lost, and he knows the feeling —) and all of this is to belong to him.

Doesn't he know? They ask.

Oh, he knows. But hates to reply.

Poor boy, without ever having known the meaning of the word, he is starving too. So he gluts himself on bricks in the dark or during slanted daylight, when no one is looking because no one cares until after he's gone. What remains are visions of the future happening now and they are terrible ~~with beauty~~, not simply for being true, but for being his own. All that red paint on his palms — he keeps wiping it onto his shirts with guilt and confusion and searching and fixing by breaking and nanny keeps cleaning it away. Back to white. Always white. Undone. Innocent. Blank.

Fresh canvas.

This much money spent on bleach could buy another's hunger, but not his. He forgets that, forgets that his spray paint has more than one cost. Copper thoughts; cash, but no change. There are those who look at the clever pictures he leaves behind, full of demands for reform he can't say and can't give despite everything being in his hands (the factory is there, he can touch it), and hope grows, dangerously ignorant. It isn't his, although some say he owns it.

i am contagious, i am breaking down
i am nothing, i am no one’s fault
i am contagious, i am plagued with lies
flesh of our fathers, i am no one’s fault
