He'll make demands, and, you, so craven, give him everything
He wants. Your cowardice emboldens him. He soon returns
And asks for more. You know he won't be satisfied until you're
Not just broke; you're broken. Not the toady which you were,
He's making you his slave. Meanwhile, you've convinced
Yourself that this one who's stood up to him is actually
The greater threat. You squat and point your weapons at
Him, though he doesn't want a thing. By doing so, you offer
Your abuser one more chance to stab you in the back.
