She stuck her lip out dramatically and glared up at her mother, curly chestnut pigtails bouncing.

“Let’s goooooo, your brother is...

Breadsticks Aren’t Meant To Be Broken

Tears streaming on demand

An injustice I can’t withstand

Joy stolen

Heart broken

Pained to the core

My breadstick is no more

Once whole now lost

Hopes and dreams tossed

Due to division

With precision

Physical separation

I cannot eat a thing that’s in two

Good thing I can cry on cue

I’ll give you my twopence

Where would be the sense

The point

They should be joint

I’m so offended

Followed by the sobbing

Those tears are throbbing

The fists are pounding

There’s no rebounding

Then the performance is over

Til the next time, moreover.
