The iron fist
A name that should be capitalized
The name alone makes one shiver
Shiver like freezing water being thrown on you

Not like the ice challenge
Like your mother throwing gallons on you
While your in the tub
She makes you lay there

You beg for her to stop
She doesn't and grabs a switch instead
Not the small ones either
The ones that are extra thick

She pours
You begs
She stops and cusses
"Shut the **** up or I'll get more water"
You cry silently
Hoping she'll stop
She grabs the switch off the toilet
She whips your *******
Stomach
Arm
You turn
She whips your back
****
Even your feet

You scream for a god that's not there
"Shut the **** up!"
WHIP!
You cry silently

She goes away
You jump out of the tub
Run naked into your room
Lock the door

The iron fist knocks
"Open this **** door"
You weep"Go away mommy"

She kicks the door down
Punches you down
Chokes you
Gets up
Grabs her gun
Puts it in your mouth
Tells you stop crying or you die
"Mommy don't"
"Shut up! You think this is a game?"
"No mommy!"
She lifts you up
"Stop crying you *****! Or you'll be dying tonight"
You stop but still whimper
She drops you and leaves your room

No words were said for the rest of that night
