Trashy robot gore

Blame it on social issues

Cause the weather sucks

She came here to teach

the land of the rising sun

where she learned herself

Scarlet O’Hara

Thought she had nothing until

She lost everything

Stephen Fry narrates

Dystopia’s foundations

in his trademark wit

Matilda’s knowledge

Outweighs all the books she read

The grown-ups are scared

A man Harry hates

Was innocent all along

True rats have colours

Welcome to the woods

Where vampires sparkle and wolves

Imprint on daughters

The TV show’s end

Caused utter disappointments

Reading is better

Students kill students

Adults call it discipline

We were born to run

Katniss breaks the rules

Much blood has once been spilt here

Where she plants flowers
