The Evil Hand

He gave up his fatherly rights, each and every night; Unbelievable evil he did by raising his evil hand, delivering painful blows from each of his kid's waist down to their toes; Growing up without a dad, for years made me bitter-insanely mad, but I must thank my mom for escaping such evil scum; Thrity-four-years-old now here I am, no longer a scared little boy, now I am a fearless man.

This is such a great piece. Kudos to your mom for escaping (I know it couldn't have been easy), and kudos to your for overcoming.
