Mollyann Fontenot-White Poet Free verse

The Hallway

Torn pages lie on hardwood
       in uneven pieces

  
Salty water streams from sad eyes
      when no one is watching

  
Angry fists bruise small cheekbones
       thin lips now shine swollen

  
Young ears staind black, hatred is born
      from the evil down the hallway
