Quindean and Quindine

Quindean was mad at her silly loud-mouth sister, Quindine.
Quindine accidentally said they were eight when they were nine.
She hid her favorite clothes; threw away her saddle shoe.
What else would an angry, nine-year-old identical twin do?

Quindean was so blasted and utterly mad,
She booked Quindine on a slow boat to north Chad.
Her twin was instantly shanghaied and led away,
So it is Quindean’s fault she has no friend to play.

She was a nasty piece of work, right? I had to give her something to think about.

I got so confused, I had to re-write it a bunch of times though.
