Family Disconnections

Prompt: Belittle the colossus



When Jason arrives, much to his chagrin,
his evil uncle strives to kill the handsome kin.
With one sandal left along the river’s route
the scandal was now on the other foot,
as when uncle was cooked into a stew,
he was disemboweled by his family, too.
It seems those closest to us hurt us most;
they linger on our minds as haunted ghosts.
