Immortality
In a broken-toy village, in a broken-toy house,
Lived a broken-toy woman with her broken-toy spouse.
Their faces were wrinkled with cracks in their paint,
But their broken-toy mouths allowed them no complaint.
With their rusted toy builds and their frayed woolen clothes,
Each sat in a corner of their broken-toy home.
Their broken-toy faces were destined to stare
At the streets that were abandoned of life and of care.
Hundreds of houses strewn across the great land
Of the broken-toy woman and the broken-toy man.
Homes lodged by more broken toys of their kind,
Each not good enough, each quite past their prime.
Most still remember the day they were dumped
By a great human child that had mercy for none.
All can recall that they soon went insane,
For until they were there, they knew not of the place.
Each broken-toy soul lives a broken-toy life
Filled with silence and hopelessness, morning ‘til night.
Through the still of the life that may well be death,
The broken inhabitants are permitted no breath.
Their stiff arms and legs never move from their sides,
And without human help, they’ll stay idle for life.
Since the novelty wore from their broken-toy parts,
They were doomed to forever with broken-toy hearts.
