*****

i hear you through the stained glass

screaming at children, scaring the **** out of them

god **** you're ******* tough, aren't you?

telling a nine year old to jump in the garbage where she belongs

 

with your cigarette stained screams

and hair that would gladly twist it's tendrils

around any unsuspecting victim

quick enough to squeeze the life out of them

before they had the sense to run

 

and this little girl has strength enough to keep her chin up,

keep moving her little legs to grab her icee

from the corner market in this early summer heat

 

and you're still on your god **** porch

yelling about little ******** pinching your baby

 

if you want to be the guard dog of this neighborhood

let's get you a chain and leash

because there's no question in my mind

that you are a *****
