Timmy Two-Heads

Sometimes a silly poem is just what I need...

Gypsies are not to be messed with

Just ask the two-headed boy

He wanted someone to play with

and instead they made him their toy

He should have run home instead

and not pulled a little girl's hair

And now he has two heads

one to think, and one to spare

Your poem has spirited rhyme & rhythm which makes it feel like tongue-in-cheek satirical fun. Despite the childlike tones, there could also be a heavier, deeper meaning on the adult plane. The final line is well-crafted to show the nonsensical way your fun little vignette is put together – like two heads could really be explained logically as having a good use! (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

I like this poem a lot :) Being a huge Neutral Milk Hotel fan it just kind of brought to their song "Two-Headed Boy", and I hear that beautiful song over this poetry, and it's awesome

Smiling because between the humour and gentle logic of your words is a well-deserved moral!

Great visual too, well found!
