Felix lies in bed at night.  
He can’t sleep,
no, not at all.  

He can’t get that
stinking creep James
out of his head.  

Sally wanted to mess James up,
and Felix talked her out of it.  

Maybe that was a mistake.  
Now it bothers him.  
He has to do something.  

He’d really like to put the hurts
on the little worm hard,
after what he and Sally went through
at their house, but what?

He can’t just forget about,
all the beatings and humiliation
they both suffered in that place.  

He has to think of something.
It’s driving him nuts.  

Bobby

Ruth,

You didn't miss much.  No one seemed to like it.

LOL, you crack me up, Bobby. Thanks for the repost, as I am following the saga of these two closely. Even though I may not reply to each adventure, I do read them.

we hang on the cusp of 'rapt expectation' pursuant to what Felix will do next!

most interesting continuation of this effectively realistic narrative!

[a 'writing style' for which (sadly) I have absolutely no 'aptitude'!]

applause!!

Thanks Dear Friends,

I'll keep you all up to date about what Sally and Felix are into.  They appreciate your concern also.

They’re good kids, and not near as bad as people would have you believe.

Bobby
