    She lives in a trailer
    with her four kids,
    a dog, a cat,
    and a man named Sid.

    Her kids wear hand-me-downs
    that don’t include shoes,
    and she makes art,
    while humming the blues.

    Tin cans of beans,
    used to build drums,
    maracas, and symbols,
    the kids sit on their bums.

    She forces them out,
    to play with their friends,
    getting them out of her hair,
    she trims her split ends.

    Molly, May, Susie, Jack,
    the “mom” can’t wait,
    ‘til they all start school,
    so she can paint.

    Her canvas fills,
    with colors so rare,
    reds are common,
    like the glow of a flare.

    All she thinks is,
    who the hell are these kids?
    As she dreams of blues, greens, lilacs,
    and forgets about Sid.

    at the suggestion of Dangermoose i did a different version where i Allude to rhyming.... lol

    She lives in a trailer
    with her four kids,
    a dog, a cat,
    and a man named,
    Sidney Robert Walker.

    Her kids wear hand-me-downs
    that don’t include shoes,
    and she makes art,
    while humming,
    Muddy Waters.

    Tin cans of beans,
    used to build drums,
    maracas, and symbols,
    the kids sit on their,
    behinds.

    She forces them out,
    to play with their friends,
    getting them out of her hair,
    she trims her split,
    hair shafts.

    Molly, May, Susie, Jack,
    the “mom” can’t wait,
    ‘til they all start school,
    so she can,
    use her paintbrush.

    Her canvas fills,
    with colors so rare,
    reds are common,
    like the glow of a,
    gun that shoots light.

    All she thinks is,
    who the hell are these kids?
    As she dreams of blues, greens, lilacs,
    and forgets about
    Sidney Robert Walker.
