A boy beaten by his dad full of rage

Acidic balsamic vinegar tastes

bland, insipid, basically, hard cider
or spiked punch, Sunday brunch, mimosa dry
yesterday, grass fire, police, youth wastes

brilliance, intelligence, dumb friends, moments
eaten, honor dissolved, wide load, wider
acceptance, tolerance, again, try, try
try, mistakes made, childhood destroyed, self, soul
empty-headed, stone cold, sold out, past tense
negligent, violent guidance, house rules

boy knows better, why sensitive, alarm
yesterday, burning brush, jail cell, thread spools

honor lost, bonds untied, boy beaten, harm
injury, pour salt, insult, unpaid toll
suffer ferocity, no pity, none

decisions made generations ago
absent parents, latch-key kids, sadistic
dad, mom, brother, cousins, second-born son

forget, forgive, let God, meaning sorrow
understand loving-kindness, pain, freak show
license, kill, double agent, statistic
liquid dreams, lessons learned, abandon hope

orbits circle, emptiness, tomorrow
future undone, fresh start, button, press hard

ratify laws, worthless, beaten, dark days
anger bottled, spirits, helpless, trump card
grant serenity, fifth commandment says
embers burn, grow fonder, absence, no dope
