Restrictions: None
the vice of a child
metallic clanks
      rhythms of machination
      in our dark garage
      on father's work bench
a vice tightens
squeezes life
from captured objects
breathing inward

a devious child
twists truth
from blood
until white
      emotions drain
      in red wails like clawing
      feather dusters
until the eyes
pop out.
