Tinker Toys

A Doll,
Broken, fragile, porceline 
Cracked and flaking 

A Jack in the Box,
Arms detached, missing eye
Still jumping to its song. 

Peices of me falling to the floor. 
A fragile toy sitting on its shelf. 

Eyes viewing flying by, no beauty in whats broken. 


Toy collector, Toy collection.
Thank you for seeing my worth.
