These Town Children Delinquent Breakers- -

In a small town of 800 the lonely town where children never sleep Hardly can anyone imagine them ever being sweet Some are bullies, some rob, steal, some brake windows Others are found juvenile delinquents breaking into condos Adults and political authorities Sanctions rules and laws just for the youth minorities These hard nosed children keep breaking them curfews Rebellious youth with incurred huge transverse views The disorderly town children fight and riot No wonder these rebellious cretins are sleep and so tried Small town of 800 this lonely town where children never obey civil laws These Town Children Delinquents breaking juveniles 9/14/19 Sponsored by:Julia Ward

I had to see who had posted this to my contest as you have, in error, put "sponsored by Nina Parmenter". Please correct it to "sponsored by Julia Ward", and eliminate "rhyme poetry form only", as I am allowing any form. If you've sent it to Nina's contest as well, you should remove it from there as the poem didn't get created at random* on the subject of town children, but is a new poem expressly written for my "Town Children" contest. // *at random being her contest's rule.
