It's Not My Fault.

"Its not my fault" !
He protests.
So who else is to blame?
The Anchor in the field ,or the Holly down the lane?


"I could'nt help it".
He starts to whine.
Helps himself any other time !!
Not so stupid when he wants to be,
Turns the blame to land on me.

"It was all your fault ".
He accuses.
Time for more mental bruises.
Stench of beer smell of fags.
"Get out my house pack your bags".

"You stupid B**ch you ugly hag".
"You made me do it and now i'm glad".
"Youve got nothing at all and no-one left".
He poured a drink, and then he slept.

"It's not my fault".
He protests.
So who else is to blame?
The Anchor in the field or the Holly down the lane....?

This is really good, very atmospheric. A person can get so many meanings from this. It doesn't sounds amateur at all.
Well done :)

its great!! and it has an awesome story...... a should try to write stories... but still continue ur writing its great...

It is astonishing what feelings can produce. You mentioned that you are not a poet, but you said it all and very well. A pity that it came to you while you felt so low. Try to write and rime more under better circumstances............

I hope you don't feel like it's your fault. It rarely is. I like your poem and how you showed it.

gr8 poem, i like it

This is excellent! I wish I didn't need the explanation at the end. Maybe you can find a way to say that they're pubs in the poem...? TD
