Please Don’t Lock us Away Again

Here in the dark

Since who knows when

Lid closed tight

Tucked securely in

Wrapped in tissue

To keep us free of dust

It mint condition

Not mussed or fussed

Day after day together inside

You couldn’t possibly imagine our vicious fights

I’m enclosed with an absolute fiend

My dear evil sister can be so very mean

Now that you’ve opened our nightmarish sarcophagus

There shall be no way of stopping us

We will rule the demented world of men

No please we beg you

Don’t lock us away again…
