Puck Art

Like a Madonna she surrounds herself with children under 10.
Adjudicator, at the school carnival, handing out ribbons but, then,
she’s cultivating the next generation with generosity & praise -
what so many lack at home, where parents struggle with children to raise.

Her husband is a local businessman, though struggling no one would dream.
This mother of two, with propensity to ‘kill or be kind’ is a local, drug queen.
No one who’s twigged can touch; the constabulary? She has them on side.
They take the pocketmoney off kids & outwardly disdain a free ride.

The parents are as innocent, as the kids who flock to her open door.
She sells their lives, from a cavity in her bedroom ceiling - this whore.
As her kids sleep, she can be found at 1am, in a club on poker machines.
Feeding her own addiction, in her secret life - with their money in reams.

One parent went to the police as informant; a prick in the lucrative bubble.
Within 4 hours the family were coerced; under threat, for her trouble:
Baby-sitters are paid lavishly not in money but, in kind - by the crone.
They chauffeur her to clubs; the market; the distant drug factory; then home.

Home coming queen? Control, missed in school, redeemed by running rings
around the kids, her willing volunteers; as she pulls their unwitting strings.
They seek her here; there; they beg; borrow; steal for her - anywhere!
Her will reigns, a dream come true; a most popular woman;  I declare.
