Failure

A example of failure and abuse

Father to belt,
Boy, who soon felt
The first hit,
The second hit
Upon the ebony
As the fall of the knee.


Harsh words,
Frightened birds,
As to the ninety-nine
That became mine
As hit left
Like lobsters by a chef.


Under the golden roof,
Pain was not proof
As abuse
Was simply well of use
To when smiles
Were present, falsely, for miles.
