Disclaimer: The characters herein are not mine and I claim no possession of anything remotely connected to them except my undying lust. This writing is purely for fun and is not intended for the purpose of gain other than hopefully the gushing commnets from the reader. The title is a corruption of CCR's "Fortunate Son".
A/N: Cinquain poetry is based upon syllable count (2,4,6,8,2, for a total of 22). (The purest form also dictates the number of stressed syllables in each line, although I've not kept to this.) Didactic cinquain is based on word count (1,2,3,4,1) rather than syllable count. I've had a go working to both stipulations.





Fortunate Sons

Children
Naïve, indulged
A jealous beginning
The betrayal of heritage
Rivals


Equals
Lucky, cunning
A familiar loathing
An agreement to disagree
Comrades


Lovers
Lenient, honest
Seeing past destiny
A re-ordering of duties
Husbands
