I Accuse

I accuse..... Part 2

My parents who instructed me,and to the letter follow
Kneel only to God,to people never my head bow
I was next line to promotion yet rebuffed to kowtow
Long stagnated and ached my way to elbow

My wife who spent elongated years galore
Taming an old curved rusty nail and implore
God I cease minding the home business no more 
Her undisputed realm and sovereignty restore

My offspring who at meal times would engage
In heat,intensive debate and seek to enrage
Their begetter who on them conferred archery
Yet shot me once they attained full mastery

Yet could medication be of any use
To what a whole epoch has abused ?
