The Bully

The venomous bite
Distant, but ever so bright
A nerve doth stricken
A heart so sickened

Melanoma like stature
A rapture like creature
Ruthless and mean
Cunning and keen

Held back three years
No cause full tears
Beatings and bruises
His torture confuses

The light now breaks
From what the bully takes
Fought back with friends
Now the bully defends

No place for bullies here or anywherel, only takes one defeat for them to scurry under the rock from where the came. Tom
