A place to hide
Behind the closet doors
Cornered by a bookshelf
Down under the covers
Everywhere and every place, a tunnel or a tower
Finding somewhere to be alone
Getting overwhelmed out there
Holing up in the small spaces
In the playground and arcade
Just above, below, or behind
Knowing what is happening by watching
Learning through a lens, the little girl in a big world
Making little noise while looking
No one can find her as she changes spots
Over others in a plastic tube
Peeping through while holding on to a little teddy bear
Question for you, where is the girl with he teddy bear?
Realizing after a while they haven't seen her
She likes to borough to avoid heading home
The plastic and rubber spots comforting
Uninterested in playing with the others but
Very uninterested in leaving
Why does she want to be in the middle?
Xylophones and toys are plenty
Yet go home and there is only TV to escape
Zeal for what is outside the life of the tiny box

*** I'm keen to republish the interviews I did for my series with Vocal creators. It's been a few years and I thought it might be nice to revisit these wonderful conversations. I'll be releasing them one at a time for a few weeks/months.
