his voice turns static. a father's air.
heads down with shame. his biting eyes narrow. a father's stare. heads down with shame. so divine. i'll wear this guilt so divine. the pain of his burden. the deadweight of lifetimes. he had his way with words. a few choice words can ruin everything. this family is sick. this family is rotting. this is where father shriek. this is where mothers weep.
