him

the father is high strung and worried - accusatory & paranoid.
television is on in every room - loud.
there is arguing.
he had to get out - it was intolerable.
he leaves to move in a boarding house with fleas.
the other tennants make fun of him.
his whole life, he has felt like no one likes him.
it seems to run in the family.
mother is the creator of this demon;
from all sides.
mother.
father.
awkward existence is difficult road to walk down.
never fitting into any mold - square peg forced into a round hole.
