cato&clove

are two lovers in a tree

K-I-L-L-I-N-G

[but not each other. never each other]

raised from birth to

kill&kill&kill

reminded from birth to never

kiss&kiss&kiss

(there were four4four star-crossed lovers in that arena)

careers

are meant to stay after ::hours::

mark with their swords

cut with their arrows

not mark with lips

[and]

cut with tongues

{darlings, one of you is already gone. make it last.}

are - they making you MONSTERS?

(careful with what you saysaysay

it doesn't matter one daydayday

they're going to make you paypaypay)

eighteen years.

and

none&none&none

of childhood

see that mother, holding her baby in that CrAdLe?

whispering sweet lull⭓a⭓bies⭓

she's not saying hush, go to sleep

but roar, win the war

the game is you.

(hahaha)
