No. 2

 

Twitching curtains

No ones’ certain,

News is sad

News is bad.

Their future so uncertain.

 

We all denied

The boy hazel~ eyed.

Nobody cared

Nobody dared.

The family lied.

 

You stand accused

The children abused.

And now we learn

Each house in turn

Now we feel bruised.

 

You can’t stay here

You’ll live in fear

We fear for your children

But now you’ve ruined them.

You had best steer clear.

 

Hang your head in shame

Your traumatised child will remain

You are to blame

For all the pain

You’ve caused the hazel~eyed boy again

(And again)
