Parents in handcuffs

Swiftly led from sight

Quickly life gets tough

Feeling only fright

Hear small children cry

Mommy! Daddy! Aunt!

Tears run from their eyes

Arms reach out in want

Now nightmares begin

Haunt for rest of life

Mind in constant spin

Heart in endless strife

Will kids learn to hate?

Learn how to exclude?

Blind to neighbor's fate?

Constant lifelong feud?
