a withered husband,
failed by life
tells me the story
that keeps him
up at night-
thrown in jail
for showing his face
in a white neighbourhood
after light
while he was being
waterboarded for
his tardiness, his
wife was being
sodemised by
men in uniforms,
trashing their shack
and leaving her with a
child with blue eyes
-he was left with
ptsd and an infant
that was birthed
out of a crime
he now awaits for an
apocalyptic flood
to take him out of his
grief knowing that the
love of his life went
through hell knowing
he could’ve protected
her from such demise
he now screams to
the sky asking his
cancer-freed rib and
his adopted son
who left him in this
prison - where is
his rope or knife.
