"Call"A Poem by Zack BurtonPoem #36. For Weird Writers Prompt 19.
Call
Call me Break my back with lightning force They said They all scream But God, I swear I swear to God I moved I flinched my arm with fraction speed And leather ripped And pigs belched Mouths on the stitches Graciously Pleadingly Screams the ball so oblong brown Hurt me Never Put me down The flight of fear and things unknown Always turn my gut around Before this I knew Never I knew What violent shock the ball it took So I took my life Rather than tell my dad Who'd kill me For quitting ball © 2010 Zack Burton |
