Prodigy

Pretty little munchkin,
precious, precocious.

She knows all the notes.
but the music is dashed off; 
a mechanical rendition.

I imagine Mozart
with an assault rifle -
that could be dangerous.

The child smiles,
she really is adorable!
The world belongs to her.

For god sake, be careful with it.
