The Indivisible Divide

rew4er2nail

 

tension between

this singular male offspring and me dad
proved more ineradicable

then tensile strengthened steel rebar

which wall veritably, unequivocally,

terribly outlived purposefulness, egad
yet remained intact

even after this son left off

way after being a lad

din viz Harris heir,

withstood the test of time,
sans supremely

wrought impenetrable barrier

(hermetically sealing off

my pre and post pubescent self)

against mad as a red bull, who coped
by escaping to bedroom pad
wherein emotional wounds got nursed
finding me both angry and sad
forsooth wishful thinking,

where disappearance powers
increased by exponential magnitudes

by the sluggish passing hours

envisioning thyself,

absorbed by bedspread flowers

quilted manually, oh so inviting bowers

which idyllic dreamy state

shattered as heavy footsteps

up the staircase found me ire rate
what chutzpah!

No matter ma mama and papa

(two time tested battering rams) aye he quate

attempted without success

to demolish invisible, inimitable,

and impregnable fortress blockade

solely existed in my pate,

and reinforced with obelisks of iron,

when I got tubby late

into my second decade of life stricken

with a woebegone miserable fate.
