Peaches

By: Nancy Green

It was a bad day.
Mysterious,
Big Joe had a bad idea.
He was going to ruin our street.
Big Joe is a bad man.

I will stop him.
I won’t let him do this.
Everybody will hate him.
I’m not just a little kid.
I am going to take charge.

He was faking.
But everybody believed him.
He will pay for his actions.
We are too good for him.
Destroyed.

I will suffer the consequences.
He is doing the wrong thing.
I am standing up for my ideas.
The smell of funerals makes me sick.
The day was dark.

Lonely,
Not dead,
Lying,
It’s over,
This was not funny.
