Why did you hit him? <br />He deserved it. He Did! <br />I’ll show him who’s boss. <br /> <br />You’re just like your dad <br />A bully, a coward <br />Born to rule then run. <br />Apologise this minute <br />Just say you’re sorry NOW! <br /> <br />I’m getting out, you’re mental. <br />Sorry for hitting my kid! ? <br />What harm does a slap do? <br />I turned out alright. <br /> <br />Except in the head. <br />That boy’s in tears. <br />Crying with fear. <br />He didn’t know that was wrong. <br />Immersed in his head <br />Some twenty years on <br />Wishing him or his father, dead.<br /><br />PAUL COLVIN<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/ongoing-arguments/
