The Watcher

that
i will never understand
why
he is called the watcher

he don't watch
nor move
speak
or
whatever

they say
he's guarding
the equipment against
the expensive playground equipment
against
the children

they don't know children
they don't know
our children

poor watcher
poor modern
scarecrow

we will always try
to protect him
