Before his untimely murder
at the age of fourteen,
Bones had already developed
a rule of life for himself.  

First of all,
he knew that he was good,
a true child of God.  

Therefore,
anything that helped him,
by putting money in his pocket,
must also be good.

Bobby

This is dark, this is brooding and this is softly killing me with its emotions.

Thanks Poddarku,

Thanks for reading and commenting.  Bones and I don't want to hurt anyone.  If my poems make you feel that way, I'd advise you not to read them.

You have a way of making the most chilling subjects from such a innocent point of reference.  Many poeple cannot do this.  I really enjoy your poetry, because it tugs at my heart strings.

That's the reasoning of a survivor.

Good work Bobby
