this piece is so sad, because it is so prevalent. so difficult for parents to hold their tempers with their little ones, and so many are so hurt instide from past hurts that they simply must pass it on, regardless of the eventual cost to their own souls. you express this ably, and even though it is such a stark and hurt-filled scenario, your wordsmithing is direct and to the point, no frills or sidebars necessary.
Powerful write and great choice of words. Emotions run high in this one.

Very Powerful and So sad. You really captured the horror of the cruel way of "love" ... Your love came with a sting from the knuckles of your fist.
Thank you so much

Contraband Marriage, traveling along the hemline of loving after incarceration, is a love story written in lyric and free form, set in reality with a different ever after.

" ... Your love came with a sting from the knuckles of your fist.
If only I could scream or cry
but my mouth forever silenced. "

Sandie.
