For all the pain and anguish
\nFor all the stress and strain
\nFor all the torment you went through
\nWhere arse wipes fell like rain<\/p>\n
Your love,
\nYour care,
\nYour sweet respect
\nAnd children from your soul
\nA loneliness, a shyness
\nA purdah a control<\/p>\n
A kind of isolation
\nAnd a terrible abuse
\nThe knowledge of the ancient crafte
\nA health providing juice<\/p>\n
It made you ever valiant
\nA Torment borne of fear
\nWith the courage of a warrioress
\nExalted and sincere<\/p>\n
One parent weak and gullible
\nArrogance and conceit
\nHorribly infallible
\nThough remarkably effete<\/p>\n
All of it
\nOn your shoulders
\nAll of it
\nPiercing through
\nThese bastards they were bastards
\nReal sods in how they drew<\/p>\n
Your wrath
\nYour sweet persuasion
\nTheir insolence, their hate
\nNarcissistic, they were all these things
\nSuch a wild state<\/p>\n
Of taking fucking liberties
\nOf imagining that they
\nHad the right to take and abuse
\nAnd look the other way<\/p>\n
Go off on their yogic jaunts
\nMindful of the harm
\nNeglectful of your true
\nDesire
\nAnything but calm<\/p>\n
For your passage to insanity
\nA henchman came along
\nPrepared to hold your hand awhile
\nTo sing whatever song<\/p>\n
And share a little of those tales of woe
\nAnd misery
\nThe unease and the prejudice
\nOf trying to get free<\/p>\n
Of collecting some idyllic thoughts
\nSome blissfully soothing hours
\nTo take on board the witchery
\nThe magic and the powers<\/p>\n
The manna in the wilderness
\nThe sunny side of life
\nTo offer a pastoral symphony
\nTo in essence much less strife<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
