Strike Them Hard, Drag Them To Church
The LEVITTS had children that weren’t exactly sane; |
|
| STRIKE THEM HARD. Drag them to Church. STRIKE THEM HARD. Pull them to Church. |
|
| You could bust them over the heads with gun butts, Canoe and clubs; Nothing seems to sink in or hurt. The CHURCH could calm those fleats with flute, and HYMNAL sound. During the sermons gag those beasts! howling out like hounds, They’d pinch, STAB, hit and poke, ‘til each were purple and blue; (Having to supply stronger OAK for the Levitts’ personal pew.) |
|
They started storming over something early one morning, |
|
| By digging a hole that was at the foot of the nearby orchard Taking on an army of plum-laden trees with rocks for ammo. Fingers that pried up rocks and branches – From the pit, a new idea; Spread out branches & rocks to make a pictures of MOTHER on a hill-side. Split-wood teeth pointed, just like the bitter wood angry jaw The mouth, a pile of shrubs and kindling fired to make a flaming maw. As Levitts ran CRAZY up and across her terrible storm-wrinkled brow, The hill would have burnt up completely Unless their yelps, jumps and leaps contained somehow. |
|
After five days of insanity including: Piggy Drags, Gun Blasts, |
|
| The years rolled, one meal every day, followed by the other. Young years left the youths, and the WEATHER Honored the Brothers and Sisters. Their minds aging, No longer MISCHIEF were they pursuing, for they had learned To hammer logs and sometimes thumbs in the calm of aging. |
