Belt Poem by Angela Bontle Ditumiso

Belt



Maybe the person who invented
The belt wasn't actually trying to
Keep his pants from falling
Or to be more presentable
But wanted his whip to be inches away
From his hanging limbs
Maybe your father figured it out
That's why he always used a belt
To deliver his punishment
