Four different fathers
a monochrome brood
drinking for comfort
and f*****g for food.
Best before blow jobs
use before shags
payment in polythene
half empty bags.
Laying and lying
but only to self
shop soiled, outdated,
left on the shelf
What people do sometimes looking for a place to feel loved and belong- sadness as it’s self destruction but each has a path to walk- pray people learn to love themselves no matter where they come from- very direct and full of passion and truth- great words- make people think🌹
A brilliant take on a very real & universal problem. Anything less graphic simply would not do. This one delivers a kidney punch just when needed.....N

Hey, sentiment well and truly reciprocated. All Good Things, N
Well-written and tough, you describe many in our society. Shouldn't tell stories, but one or two might be my kin. As I have seen, either sex can sink into such a gutter. Some can be pulled from there, but others not.
Wow - move over John Cooper Clarke - there's a new social conscience in town with six guns of hard-hitting phrases and smokin' metaphors.
Top write Gee!

The troubles and then the sex scandals have removed that 'strictness' - now 4 kids from one family are just as likely to all have different dads as anywhere else!
All good here thanks matey. How's yourself?
When I saw the beginning of the 'donkey' joke to Ken, I thought "He's bragging again about the size of his...ahem...' - lmao.

When I taught in the inner city I knew these people. And young one's of both sexes as well.
And we call ourselves an enlightened society.

On a lighter note, that means here comes the bullshit, I think my dad was a donkey, because whenever I asked mum why he did the bad things, she always said " I don't know son, eeyore, eeyore, eeyore to av known better !!!"

doing what we need to to survive and take care of our children...the judgmental will boo-hoo it...taboo it, but those who really get it...will hush and just understand instead of put labels on people.
