Oh wow, this is... I love this.

"She just called me an eem-bee-sill." -- I like the naive sound of this... of the child sounding out the word. It was incorporated very well into the poem.

It reminds me of the types of poems I started to write when my cousin was deployed to Quwait -- Daddy dying and people left behind. But mine are mostly different because they don't have the abuse part in there, too. At least the most recent one I wrote about this topic (You'll Come Back) doesn't. I don't think the others do either.

But that's so off topic.

"Wake up and get out of that stupid box" was also a brilliant line. It just drove the point further of the child not understanding.

Beautiful. truly amazing.

abuseVery good, but tragically sad. I know three kids that when they lost their dad there mother started abusing them so this really hits home.
