Childhood Memories Fatal Uncurable Poem by Terence George Craddock

alone abused bruised
memories erupting
beneath surface frail

shattered adult abilities
when rejection haunts
anew comes bubbling

up anew?
Why, mum?
Why, mum?

that track tear tears
again impaled wound
in side through heart

impaled slaughted in childhood
mind memories malignant nightmares
spiteful malicious evil-intentioned

virulent invasive uncontrollable
childhood memories fatal uncurable
child cast into cauldon bubbling hate fate
