A fight
broke out
the papers said
and
one person is dead.
It could
have been worse
authorities say
though
it is hard
to see how
when he was
the only one
of his kind.
He looked
a little different
than
everyone else
but
with only one head
two arms
two legs
walking upright
it was
difficult to say
what set
the fifty other
five year old
boys and girls
against him.
Surely
the color of his skin
no darker
than their own
could not be
the reason
for his elimination
but
the investigating officers
said
we cannot yet
rule out
any explanation
for
his untimely end.
