"Box Logic #2" considers kids in a box they create for themselves. Or do we create it for them? Kids go to the playground because, well, that's what they do. I looked at the components of the playset, how they came to be there,  and the interplay between that past and present; the boxes we're all in together.  Granted, this one just may be too esoteric. After all, we're all allowed some of these. Early Fall 2012.

Box Logic #2

Think
Park-like playground
Perhaps Lion's or Jaycee-sponsored
Cold
Brightly-colored
Cubed network of fun
In which to play
Over imported sand

Metal
Plastic
brightly spray painted
In union's one hand
cell phone in the other
In toxic-smelling plant

Face
By square face
Oxidizes in the sun
Kids ride slow slide
In bored
Anticipation
Of gravity
