Sense Sonnet - Acher

Bo and the Our Girls

The Mrs. Prez is using clout
To "bring back our girls" world talk.
At first I thought it was about
The First Daughters. I was in shock.
I was a very relieved Bo.
The missing girls were not my own.
Could such an act ever be so?
More terror is becoming known.
Is any child safe anywhere,
Including the First Family?
Does any child face the nightmare
Of humans' inhumanity?

I ran to the First Daughters, and
Licked them lovingly on each hand.
