Come to my arms, my beamish boy.
He came to us.
He promised us.
Peace, joy, freedom.
Utopia.
Come to my arms, my crying boy.
You're frightened.
Like fire, fear spreads.
It sneers at us.
But don't you worry.
He knows what to do.
He always does.
Come to my arms, my laughing boy.
You see them suffer.
You see them write in pain.
You see how the flames char their bodies.
Their screams, like bloody daggers, cleave the air.
Come to my arms, my fiendish boy.
All innocence, all kindness, all humanity.
All you had. Obliterated.
Our poor utopia.
Poor, rusted utopia.
Come to my arms, invading dystopia.
And my utopia? You?
Breathe deep, my sweet utopia.
Breathe deep and die.

- It is amazing! Made me laugh. I love writing like that. I remember in sixth grade we had to write a short story about a room, and I wrote mine about a torture room. It was so gruesome that my teacher wouldn't let me read it aloud like everyone else was...at first. I convinced her to let me read it, and it gave everyone in the room chills. I still have it...

- We had to write something with a contradictory or unrelated title. Originally it was Rusted Utopia, but I decided I like this title better. By the way, catch the Jabberwocky reference? XD
