Dickhead

“Dickhead” There is a saddened kind of shame a name that’s cruel and thus demeans, elementary obscene a child can not reach deep enough. It started when I read above my third grade level reading group and followed to my brownie troop then fearful fighting, flight to home. And in defense I’d use my gift to make up names and write mean songs- I’d teach the boys to sing along and charge their chocolate milk money. With my moustache a poor disguise, with puffy, rubbing, teary eyes I made myself apologize though only choking squeaks were heard. Nicoleslaw Dickhead was my name a name that’s cruel and thus demeans, slimy side-dish dung for brains- a child can not reach deep enough.
