Devotedly Following - Contemporary Poems Mostly about People Who Do Awful Things

Devotedly Following

Brutalized by someone
They trusted,
Living adult lives of
Overt fear and anger,
Lashing out at
Imagined adversaries,
Pretending to be strong,
Whimpering inside,
Devotedly following the
First tyrant that
Comes their way.
