Laugh it up

Poems from crazy people with bad pasts, Installment 1:

MOTHER WAS A PEPSI PERSON
FATHER LIKED HIS                 COKE
                
                MOTHER LIKED TO HUG HER BABY
FATHER LIKED TO                        CHOKE

MOTHER PRAYED FOR QUIET NIGHTS
WHILE FATHER SPENT HER DOLLARS

              INSECTS SEEK THE PORCH'S
                                 LIGHT

WHILE
    HUMANS
         SEEK
             A
              COLLAR
