“Every time you
tell your daughter
you yell at her
out of love
you teach her to confuse
anger with kindness
which seems like a good idea
till she grows up to
trust men who hurt her
cause they look so much
like you.”

“And here I thought libraries were quiet because people were trying to study,” David whispered.
“That might be another explanation.”
