Switched Up

He cowers as she throws her fit

Shes blind with rage

Her eyes are red with anger

Shes gone crazy aiming for his head

a pan flies, barely missing

he ducks and hides

running up the stairs

to their bedroom he goes

locking the door afraid of her terror

She yells

She screams

She throws

She hits

but on the bedroom floor he just sits

checking his blood wound

from which she hit

but he dared not to cry

until he is now where he hides.

An abusive wife now isnt that new.

And hell this all over just some tiny flew

He had taken their toddler to the store a day ago

But now he is coughing and coughing away today

She blames him so she hits and screams.

Yes, she is an abusivve wife it seems.

We never think of a woman abusing a man but it does happen more than we think. Its sad that men and women won't tell someone because they are scared of what other people think. You captured his fear very well. Well done :)

Abusive people suck! And it isn't that often that you see an abusive wife... even though they do exist.

Interesting because we never think of a woman abusing a man. Great write.

very nicely written and comprehensive. this is an issue that goes largely unnoticed
but is more encompassing than most would think. great job!

Hm, this is a coincident since i just saw a special on a talk show the other day about abusive woman. it doesn'tn happen as much, but there are some out there. great write! :)
