Heartaches for the Kids

By katydid194713

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I wish I had the opportunity to say,my grandchildren won't be far away.But, whether they are near or far, their mother will make sure they obey.If she continues her slapping, choking, hittingand locking the child in a basement.She'll do it and say that it was not her; itwas the child, who deserved this treatment.The State of Missouri wouldn't listen,the people the mother knows are buffalo-ed.The mother won't be held accountable,she's gotten away with this action untold.She will keep the kids far away from us, andenjoy every minute of our heartache.She is a vile, mean human being and the oldest child wants out, for her sake.So, how do I help these poor little people?I can't even get the courts to listen.The kids need to be away from this person,or they will all end up needing assistance.
