Young Maggie

Big Daddy braved the hot roof
and brow-beat young Maggie with a
“Where’s he hiding?”
kind of look;
“O Brick?” said Maggie,
“He’s just hanging out,
I guess he’ll drop in later.”

    There are too many Big Daddies in this fairy-tale world!

    Well-done double-entendre. (Which BTB is an English phrase. We Frogs don’t use it).
    Cheers.

    Brilliant! I love the way you’ve connected it to the characters in the play/film.
