Family Portrait
A quiet man
and
a crazy lady
had
a vain drunk
who married
the invisible man,
an autumn maple leaf,
a white t-tank,
and
a pedophile,
begetting
an old woman,
a lost boy,
and
a survivor.

Inspired by NaPoWriMo2016's day #2 prompt: write a poem that takes the form of a family portrait.

Intense and powerful. LOVE the last line.
