Analysis of Memories Of Jim



Little Lord Fauntleroy
  left to devise

His future uncertain
  a past once despised

Little Lord Fauntleroy
  his choice lies within

To do unto others
  or do unto him

Little Lord Fauntleroy,
  escape from these walls

The lords and new creatures
  —your legacy calls

(Memories Of Jim-Villanova Pennsylvania: June, 2016)
