THE SCUFFLE
A scuffle
Broke out
In the
Middle of
The night.
I lay asleep
But was
Awakened
By the
Fight.
With sleepy
Eyes, I
Looked
Around
Noticing
Immediately
Booglie
And Ziggy
Missing...
Oh where
Were the
Two?
I questioned...
Surely not
Fighting.
I heard
Booglie's
Voice
Requesting
To be
Let go.
Clearly
Ziggy had
Him
Pinned to
The floor.
I rushed
In a daze
To break
Up
The fight
But stopped
Short
When I
Saw the
Sight.
Laughter
Burst out
Of me...
Booglie
Had his
Hand
Caught in
Ziggy's silver
Bracelet.
Caught stealing
It
I pulled
The two
Free
Bringing
Them back
To sleep.
Booglie
Looked at
Me
Embarrassed
At having
Been
Caught
Trying
To steal!
