The last meal had been cleared out,
The flute playing, the dancers jiggling,
Aunt Rosie's baby snored adorably,
After gobbling up her share of the evening's delicacy,
Snickers gushed out from the idlers at the corner,
As they bore tales of the unfortunate,
The atmosphere wore a tinge of festivity,
No one saw thirteen years ago Anan pick up the firearm,
The moon speared the way like a giant arrowhead,
Leading to Oga's living space,
The blast slashed the air, staining faces with uncertainty,
He was led away to be charged as an adult,
Protecting his baby sister defiled,
By a man termed "above the law"
