Very Bad Poetry

Welcome to the last refuge for the world's worst poetry.

It's difficult to understand how, in this age of information, poems that merely miss the mark can be tossed into the cold world to fend for themselves, only to whither and be forgotten.

The Children Inside

Robert Hawkins

Sunbeams Home in Buckner Orphans Home corp.
Time not far removed from now but a lifetime ago.
My little brother, my little sisters in fear.
Some of who lie in unmarked graves some alive yet die everyday.
At six years I got sick my head hurt so bad.
Our house mother got tired of me crying.
Locked me in a bathroom two days long when finally my night came.
Scared crying sleeping tween toilet bowl the wall far as I could cringe.
My head the belt my screams please.
I saw a angel,, no it's her,, oh no please I'll be good.
Please don't hit me,, please I'll be good.
Crack of window light window so high.
She opens the door,, was so sick,, I cry.
Shut up! She screamed so loud.
I can't take your crying!
To damn many kids!
She is going to shut me in again.
I cry run for the door smashing my fingers.
Scream, I scream, I scream.
Cry, I lay on the floor I cry.
I cry, I cry.
I'll cry no more.

note; this is a portion of my quatrain.
Further particulars under the same title.
I was raised at Buckners.
Wrong place right time.
