                                              Clammy, Swollen, Scabbed. 
                          Adjectives to describe his hands. 
                          His fingers swollen in a fixed fist.
                          Hateful, Violent, Pathetic. 
                          Adjectives to describe his actions. 
                          "Bruises build character"
                          I'm sorry the food is cold dad.
                          Please just let me go to bed early
                          When he spoke 
                          He was heard.
                          And when he struck 
                          He was accurate.
                          My bruise's never lasted long.
                          I should have listened in the first place.
