Driving/Roads Human Punching Bag
Karyn Indursky
Putting out cigarette ashes
on freshly bruised skin
from a raging fist
pounding out stress caused
by everyone else not
found in the room
while cheetah hair gets
pulled out of her
toddler head cracking against
cement floors in deafening
sounds croaking out of
broken teeth mouth pleading
for her loving mother
smacks her to stop
crying out before someone
hears her limp body
clothed daintily in her
blood stained creamy milk
dress no longer forced
into being her mother's
human punching bag.
