I traveled to the edge
of the world
peered beyond
to a place that glistened and sparkled
with the finest of wares
and as i jumped
and the sparkling lace
wound around my limbs
damming my fall
the sharp edges of diamonds
cutting my skin
past hungry children
and women who sold
all they held dear
they reached for me
and the sparkling chains
i recoiled in shock
trying to scramble up
the chute of wonders
