Cowering in the corner, the boy began to cry, ******* in the gloom. Searching the room As his father slowly went by. His father’s reddened ****** Caught under the weak bedroom light His genitals pink and bright, Like a swollen crucifix hanging impudently. “Out my boy.” He called In a voice that to the child Sounded like thunder, ill-tempered and wild. “Daddy needs you.” The father bawled. The father’s affection was a wound That disfigured body and mind Care sullied, love unkind- First loved, made love to, then wholly ruined. His father’s hand jabbed the gloom And laughing cruelly pulled him out “I knew you were somewhere about.” Dragging him through the room. The child at first whimpered, Then was muted. As his father began, Through his small body the pain ran, Biting his lips, the boy quietly simpered.
