Wes Moore Characterization Sonnets

Lived two boys long ago named Wes Moore
Much time they didst spend on the streets with some drugs
Helped they thus the case of their families so poor
Dealt both with some crews who were really just thugs
Black were their faces like a starless mid-night
Cared both boys for their outward appearance
Although hindered the looks of these two their flight
Displayed both Wes Moores perseverance
Fancy clothes wore one Wes just to seem cool
Jordans wore the other and had small self-control
And while corrected was the first’s behavior at school
Developed the other a worser soul
Their actions thought the boys would serve the turn
But caused unlawful behavior one future to burn




Caused love and drugs in the lives of the Moores much drama
Of the care of their mothers in spite
Saw both boys violence, cocaine and marijuana
But saw the Moores in their darkness some light
Motherly love was what afloat kept the souls
Of the boys quarreled they with the cops
Was one “Kid Kupid” with his seducer roles
With the drugs the other in a Nike shoe box
Fathers absent on the boys inflicted bad behavior
When their wives left they without a tear
And although acted their mothers as a savior
Didst their corrupted fates seem so near
As struggled each Wes between good and evil

Continued their cities in constant upheaval
