Poems
Jan 2014
Cornered Fox
Sleep with a wrench
For my protection
Always from violent men
Who head my family
Never been struck
Always threatened of my life
They all sleep with guns
Fear their transgressions
Committed and damage done
Eyes ever open
Rage that they failed
Whatever standard was set
It makes me worry so hard
My matriarch
Can't take shock to a failing heart
How easy would it be
With this metal beat
Respect into
Their heads
