The Punishmemt

Larry Lowry 1959 (Pryor)



The Punishment the whip falls a drip of blood falls off and hits the ground.      What did i do a girl died and i failedher   The whip keeps falling  and blood falls off my back. I deserve the punisent i failed her as she laid on the ground  limp. What happened? A car flipped she flew out a window. I hung upside  down in the car. I screamed  her name and found her twisted limp. They tested me to see if i was drunk i cried and cried. The floor in front of me is melting it wants me to fall into it.           The whip keeps falling i bleed .  I deserve it i deserve it punish me use knives next please show everyone my failure  punish me  I FAILED HER.
