A Family Story
There needs to be vanity,
Or a dark twist to the story.
A demon angel, Michael
Basking in his glory.
Then there must be a
Wicked witch from the West.
She is beautiful, evil
And self-possessed.
If you delve deep into the
Family history, a hint of incest.
Its genetics altered
And unprocessed.
A deranged and crazy
Mother-in-law.
A daughter that dances
In the raw.
A crazy, twisted step
Mother.
A perverted, baby making
Older brother.
The cousin who has six kids,
Baby's daddy's unknown.
This is more twisted
Then The Twilight Zone.
We cannot forget about
A monster or a beast.
The older brother confessing
His sins to the local priest.
A young prince, dark,
Handsome and tall.
We need a gypsy lady
With a crystal ball.
This tainted bloodline,
Estranged family diversity.
Generations its riddled
With scandal and perversity.
The young prince, his father,
A man of color, a peasant.
It makes family gatherings,
A little unpleasant.
The queen ran off with a
Carpenter who has only one leg.
He is 67 years old, his seeds
Can't fertilize her egg.
The young prince is not
Like the rest.
He has aptitude, class and
A touch of finesse.
The young prince has a chance,
He must break away from the clan.
I need to hurry before,
The changing from boy to man.
