A mother drowned her sons this Tuesday

A mother drowned her sons this Tuesday,

The daily magazine reported.

In the blaze, the hurtful summer haze,

Cold water was relief and madness.

A mother drowned her sons, fifteen months

Babies, they weren't fed gold for lunch.

Willow branches shamelessly shut the

Dreaming infants' eyes, when it was night.

A mother drowned her sons, and the killed

Herself too: the town had three to mourn.

A naked night was burdened by the

Heavy crying of the Missouri.
