Kewpie Doll; Gas Mask

inspired by Chernobyl - 24 years on
In an abandoned fun park
A rusty carousel spins
In the breeze

Husks of buses and cars
Rot in snow and sun

In deserted classroom
Books remain opened on desks
Sheaves of yellowed paper cover floorboards

Peeling green paint and ripped curtains adorn
A room of toddler beds,
All empty.
Lying in the corner,
a Kewpie doll, a gas mask
