Artwork
April 25, 2013
Used dangerously
Mostly celebratory
Eye capturing
Bringing tears of shock and awe
Also fear in the little ones
Pops of luminescent lights
Rise through the darkness
On the battlefield
Or down the parade route
Everyone, even children
Dancing and prancing
Through the town
Now is the time
Stand and watch
Carnival
Come to an end
