A knock at the door
An angel in the night
Her name was Mary
Gentle and kind her
Glow so bright
Please tell me little Micky
I need to know
What happened little Micky
From your head to your toe
Bubbles and giggles
McKinley bending colors in the air
While truths of abuse
Escape big brother's
Tiny lips without fear
Daddy's protection
For so long kept afar
His gentle touch
His whispers of love
Felt as distant as a
Fading star
Months of trauma buried
Cruelty too young to know
Mama's pretend world
Forced to fester below
Ears for learning
Yanked taught to pain
Cheeks for kissing
Twisted to tears and strain
Hands for building
Squeezed hard to
Control tantrums
Love failed to reign
Parasite parents
Rips nutrients from roots
To sow the pleasures
Of demon fruits
Little brother dances
To the sparkle above
So excited he created so many
Shimmering circles that glow
Big brother Micky looks into
Mary's trustworthy eyes
He remembers all the nights
Mommy muffled his cries
The truth walks protected and clear
Like Moses through the Red Sea
Dangerous waters parted
Unseen hands guiding
Micky's truth finally free
From one tiny mouth
To another angel's ears
Mind body and nerves
Unshackled from hallow hearts
Threats and sneers
Small hands once clinched
Suddenly relieved
892 suns that rose
Then fell
Cries for his father
No longer possible to quell
An economy of pain
Profiteering off pain
Lawyers and Judges
Like game hunters
God stunters
Shooting down dove
After dove
From the heavenly sky of
Fatherly love
Sorry my Micky and
My bubble giggle McKinley
The fiends of the green greed
The lies and the thieves
The back channel back scratchers
That makes daddy's heart bleed
They beat me again
Those godless body snatchers
My star and your cries
Pushed further afar
896 suns fallen
Our hugs and our kisses
Now stolen
But please know l miss you
Your tickles and cuddles
My wounds they are
Swollen
But I won't leave you
I promise
I love you I promise
I miss you I promise
God loves you
I promise
