Poem (and drawing): Scarred for life


click drawing to enlarge


It could be watching
Your family being slowly diced up

By a madman with a machete
Or the time your brother let you down

A trauma from a car wreck
Or when you were wrongfully accused

Finding out your wife is sleeping
With your best friend

Or when your parents let you
Cry yourself to sleep 30 years ago

It could be your motorcycle accident
Or the time you saw your Uncle naked

Under a bad moon
It could leave you scarred for life.
