(Terzanelle-style poem)
Comments about this post on ABC Open 500 words – The kindness of strangers.
A shaky monkey bridge,
On Chinese New Year’s Eve,
In a far strange village.
Two sisters failed to leave,
And their friends were shot dead,
On Chinese New Year’s Eve.
Two sisters filled with dread.
The hellish ruthless jail.
And their friends were shot dead.
Their friends’ death – they bewail.
A horror time of escape.
The hellish ruthless jail.
On Chinese New Year’s Eve.
