Sticks - Thomas Sayers Ellis

I found this poem interesting. Had to go back and re read some parts. There was a twist towards the middle where he saying how his dad would beat his mom. He talks about his dad like he's this great guy and then we see he's diabetic as well. He's stricken with illness.

  1. I also found this poem interesting. I also thought that the child looked up to his father for all the wrong reasons.
