Crockery

 Crockery


He threw the crockery on the floor 

And then he just stormed out

Breaking the morning tranquility

Cracking the family mirror. 


We then were left picking the pieces

On the white tiled kitchen floor 

Trying to make sense of it all

This had happened oft before. 


He then returned in the evening

Full of bonhomie. 

He had managed to expel his demons 

The lucky devil he. 


While we on the other hand suffered

As we scrambled to make sense 

Of the early morning meltdown

Lost in a moral mayhem. 


We are the ones left living with it

As he bangs the door behind him

We are the silent victims

Of his selfish angry surges. 


Is the time right we wonder 

To show him the door 

That he slams so easily

And give us back some serenity?
