to be surenot to be mistaken

                               for he certainly left a wide avenue to be promulgated writing Boys will be pricks

    wrote  he assumed these boys hadnt a mother like he his

                                                                  crossed her shed beat him with a belt a stick switch strop

it seemed if she didnt touch him with her bare hands that the object that did did the beating

he was not a stupid boy

the beatings ceased by the time he was in fourth

                                                     he learned the game

then he learned to be devious

    early on he thought his Maw was just giving him more rope to hang himself

then he realised

                   there was no rope

earlier he was punished assuredlyso because he was adamant  intractable   feared irredeemable

    he was punished because words to him were uncured

he did not visualise them particularly as his mother did

                                                                 steps

hardedged  fitted and formed sentences

he liked loose phrases

sentences to create paragraphs

he disliked paragraphs

                         to often other thoughts came up fast from behindchucked it in the back knocked it on its face

          where he stood  what he saw   a wonderful faceplant  pratfall

    humourous

 

he wasnt stupid

he learned to play the game well enough to pleasebarely his Maw his teachers

                                                                                  the whole while pleasing himself

words when he was young were soft things  pliable   elastic

                                                                   Silly Putty pressed over peeled off

then made amiableperhaps gruesome  monsters

 

he madeup new words to say what he needed to say  that had not only not been written  defined  but hadnt ever been said   enunciated

one might think hed like foreign languages

 

    he wasnt that sharp
