I know you’re trying to not be your father
Because he hurt your mother
And the cycle cycles endlessly
No fists in this business
Instead a clanging clamour to anticipate the chink in your armour, so relentlessly
Verbs as daggers
Tones like swords
Watch your mouth, babe
Where all stillness is born
Tip toeing around is harder without carpet there
Feet padding down hallways half past 8
Don’t you shake, don’t awake
Broken bear with singed fur and someone has escaped his layer
