The Eye of the Hurricane

Boo Radley, the lonely recluse.

Boo Radley, the misunderstood outcast.

The king in pauper’s clothing.

Sitting in his dusty home,

He watches the innocent play.

Angry at the world,

For the treatment of others.

He never emerges,

He sits and watches.

Yet, when Scout and Jem

Are in peril,

He rushes out

to save their lives.

He returns to the house,

never to be seen again

by the curious kids,

his only friends.
