Jon-Benet Ramsey Syndrome
When a car goes past
I can’t help but think
That maybe
It will stop near me
And some guy will get out
Put a chloroform cloth over my face
Wait until my head goes limp
To load me into the back of his van
I feel slightly excited
at the prospect of being one step closer
To Jon-Benet Ramsey,
To sainthood
But I know
The car won’t stop
I just can’t help it
I want someone
To look at me
Not too long
And not too hard
If only life
Were a five second peep show
Someone could put a penny in the machine
I could flash my tits
The curtain could go down
And some voice
From above would say
Well, that's all folks!
