the Children of the Corn Stare
Hey kid,
burning a hole into me
with your creepy "Children of the Corn" stare;
I promise you that I'm not a monster or an interloper.
I'm just in a wondrous contraption called a wheelchair.

Poet Notes: I get that some kids are just curious or fearful of my wheelchair because they don't understand, so they stare. It's normal but the staring gets creepy sometimes, π lol, especially when it's more than one kid at a time. It reminds me of that movie, "Children of the Corn." It feels like they're staring right into my soul, muahaha! ππ This poem just pokes fun at the awkward situation.
Smooches and think Tink! π§π»♀️π
