Fatherless
When a household is fatherless
desperation drips from weathered eaves
the children tend to grow wild as weeds
slipping from rambunctious into mischievous..
People dismiss it as a faze-to be outgrown in time
but it often cascades into crime after crime
they do a little bit of time after time
years slipping by into the bin of wasted lives.
My country is much like a fatherless household.
