"FACINGFACES 2002 - 04" SELECTED POETRY (Part 2)

He was Strong
He was proud, he was strong
One day, she did not follow his dreadful commands
He beat her, again and again,
Until her tears ran dry

They learned, his son, his daughter and her
To fear his presence by night and by day
A moonless night, while asleep,
They silently left

He became his only companion
In the dark and alone
His strength, made him weak
