Your Story

A Poem by BetanuZwei

Number 1: Crush damage to left tarsal.

You were 5 years old,

you dropped the kettle on your foot.

Number 2: Calcium deposits around both ankles.

How many times did I nurse you better

on the side of the football pitch?

Number 3: Healed fracture of the left patella.

That was last year, when you

fell down the school stairs; you didn't even cry.

Number 4: Fractured clavicle

Number 5: Crushed carpals

Number 6: Dislocated elbows

Number 7: Two gunshots to the cranium.

I can't read this.

I can't explain that away.

I'll find who did this.

I'll find them.

I'll find them and kill them.
