Parents

[kilted exile]

Ok, a version of this poem is in the recesses of the forum somwhere

PARENTS

Argue, shout, scream
Invade every dream

Walked out on the mother
Made me hate my brother

Uncaring, Unfeeling
Belittling, Decieving

Misinterprate, misunderstand
Really is a better man

Always working, never there
But however, pretends to care

Questions, Questions every day
How I wish she'd go away

Not her fault
She just dont understand
Just respond the best I can
See I'm not that kind of man

Dont discuss feelings
Dont discuss plans
Just sat with the knife
Cutting lines in my hands


aint much good, cliche in parts

I really like this! There is so much feeling and anger in the poem.

Thanks, still think feeling and anger is about all the poem has though - it is quite unpolished & raw - somewhat like me

[Lokasenna]

Very raw and very angry. The clipped tones really compliment the subject!
