Hugs and Kisses the Poem Prelude To the Off Broadway Performance

To where the lies the boundary,
between love and hate.
By a Father's iniquities?
Near a Mother's mistake?

A family's bond,
through blood and pain.
Ruled by fear,
breeds a daughter's shame.

Hush little baby,
don't say a word.
Or daddy's gonna put you,
where you can never be heard.

A slumber party?
Why sure you can.
Bring that one little friend,
so daddy can see her again.

Your father loves his girls
and that's a fact.
But you're nothing without me,
and don't you ever forget that!

We are the family next door,
you know us, Mr & Mrs...
Our's is the perfect life,
filled with lot's of Hugs & Kisses.
