Children Caught Between
Two Opposing Forces.
(Villanelle)
While Danny is locked in the closet
at home,
and Father made Mother vanish,
into the night
Eddy is happy, on the streets to
roam,
leaving Mother in a state of confound,
on her own.
Danny's seethe can't be controlled,
poor mite!
While Danny is locked in the closet
at home.
His bruise, a result of Fathers’
drunken fist alone,
he blames ergonomics for his seed
so slight.
Eddy is happy, on the streets to
roam.
Mothers’ chagrin overwhelm her asking
a loan
to keep Eddy out of prison and
fights.
While Danny is locked in the closet
at home.
Now Eddy is mixing nitrogen with
foam
And plans a journey of a different
sight.
Eddy is happy, on the streets to
roam.
Mother and Fathers’ contrast of
life has shown
Two young brothers, caught between
this force of plight
While Danny is locked in the closet
at home.
Eddy is happy, on the streets to
roam.
