These Children

'These children, who come at you with knives'
Manson said, in what amounted to a threat but
He had a point, you know -
The little fuckers are all tooled up
A six inch switchblade of staggering inconsequence
It stared me dead in the eyes and said:
'well, goh-ah dafend mysewf, in-it?'
and it was, we s'posed, but doubt persisted;
Though we knew the blade was imaginary
We were never sure about the kid.
