The hit of the day!

The hit of the day!

A Poem by .
"

Does getting a black eye prove the existance of God?

"

Is it a lack of mothers love?

Or had a father gone away?

Just what is it..

That makes boys have to have there way.

 

Do they think it’s cool to be dumb?

Have they been told they must subdue y’all?

Just what is it..

That makes boys have to have it all?

 

Why do they get angry when you out climb

Why do they hit when you’re faster on the run

Why do they have to lash out,

When a girl wins the trophy in a sportsmanlike way.

 

I ran hard

I did my best

I climbed up that rope faster than all the rest.

 

The boy got angry

And didn’t see the Dean

When he lashed out and got real mean.

 

He come from behind

With harm on his mind

Then came his fist, that gave me a black eye.

 

Then he went to run

Then ended his vengeful fun

As he ran right into the Dean. A real big guy.

 

The boy jumped and panicked

Tripped and fell..

Right down the stairs to hell.

Well...

Maybe not the real Hell..

But I think the Emergency Room counts.

 

As I did not have to swing back to make him fall..

I’m thinking.....

Perhaps there is a God, after all...

The poem is very good. I like the flow of the story and the ending. Karma can be fair sometimes. I believe people who live to give pain. Will have only sadness and pain for them to swim in in their lonely death. Good people with strong and good hearts will have friends and children to be with them. I like the last line. A excellent poem.

Lol, was always really good at sports, my school doesn't have a rope, but I did climb a climbing wall and was the fastest at that... I also got the fastest time (out of girls) for the mile... So I can relate, The guys in my class were insanely fast, but as guys get older they get faster, I used to be faster then all of them...
