A slap in the face <br />My ears stinging like harsh hail <br />…The Audacity… <br /> <br />You beat me, beat me <br />Like a mischievous dog <br />Beat me with bare hands <br /> <br />Tolerate not I! <br />I stand up undefeated <br />No longer beaten<br /><br />ijanekia dunning<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/abuse-27/
