ROBERT SHERRIFF - Animal - Man That Hits a Woman or a Child

ROBERT SHERRIFF 08/07/1954 - AUSTRALIAN - POET -AUTHOR - SINGER - ACTOR - AMERICAN HISTORIAN – PHOTOGRAPHER Animal - Man That Hits a Woman or a Child Animal Coward Worm Slime No guts, no glory Little man with a small mind Day after day Week after week Year after year Black eyes Broken bones Bruises all over my body Alcohol has gone to your brain You were nice once Devil in disguise I beg you to seek help You promised it would stop Then you did the unthinkable That broke the camel’s back You threw our three-year-old daughter Through the glass door I now have custody You now have another Forty years in prison Torment Agony Despair Shattered Oppression Tyranny Suffering Anguish Trauma Subjugation
