Summer Of Darkess



This was a night
unlike the rest it was dark
it was so quite
one could hear the moths in flight.
There unlike here
hungry mouths without teeth
reminds me of
that skeleton that bush in front of a tree.
Mother
mother traded the sex
the sex of her children for crack.
Father is in prison
sadly he is in prion because there
was no room at the jail.
Some where else hearing that I was
as a young child
a political man did what was wrong
to me
I was different then.
My very speech unlike these words
such speech
it being spoken only inside of your head.
Darkness falls and once again winter comes
bright flashes go off
in my head.
