DECEPTIVE TOYS



Unperceived by the naked eyes,
Their mysterious purpose unfold.
Affecting our everyday lives,
Immense significance they hold.

Replicas of the adult world,
Subtly are these amusement devices designed.
Confining innocent minds,
They illucidate gender roles that have been assigned.

She is a confined being,
Amidst four walls.
Cooking and grooming were ingrained in her,
With kitchen sets and Barbie dolls.

Alternatively, his dreams have always been sky high,
Fluttering with aeroplanes,
Great freedom they signify.

This is the cryptic meaning that they imply.
Thereby they cease to be mere toys.
