The windows are broken,
the shards of glass stick in the throats
of the children who try not to breathe
as they listen to the loud bangs and screams.

Explanation:
An appositive is a noun or pronoun set beside another noun or pronoun to explain or identify it. When the appositive is used with words that modify it, we get an appositive phrase.
An appositive phrase usually follows the word it refers to. It's often framed by commas, except when it's considered to be an essential part of the sentence.
Here are some examples:
- <em>Niagara Falls</em><em>, </em><em><u>the natural wonder in New York</u></em><em>, is not the tallest in the country</em>. - the underlined part is an appositive, and the part written in bold letters is the part of the sentence the appositive explains. As we can see, the appositive explains what Niagara Falls are.
- <em>My </em><em>brother </em><em><u>Jim </u></em><em>lives in Kansas.</em> - names preceded by words that describe their <em>status/title</em> are usually appositions. In cases such as this one, they are considered essential, which is why they are not framed by commas.
