Through a middle age crisis a father
sits
farther away from his kids as he ever as
because like most games in his halfway over life,
he has lost.
he has lost his kids
he watches as their little red cheeked faces faces
walk away being yanked by a black hole of depression and drug addiction
simply getting away because she was their mother
the police didn't even evaluate her
but found an old charge to the father
and reignited it
and may as well of shocked him to death
because now he cannot see the kids
he cared about his whole first half of his life having
and now
must spend the rest
without  them.
