Curiosity killed the innocence

Lives built-upon-a-daydream              
loosen rigid jaws,                
as swathes protecting their eyes        
are mauled off by Curiosity.                    
         
He moves his cat corpses
off to an isolated crook
as a memoir for past victories.              
Leaning upwards, extending his arms;                
he places the new trophy on the mantle.              
A Gentlemen’s skull stares into                
and beyond death's realm.             
                  
Every second another suicidal    
victim falls willing.      
Motionless seas of hollow      
sockets gazing aimlessly,              
teem with concaved regrets.               
Will you be next?
