All He Knows

He doesn't know why
I gave him a disgusting look when
he poured down saliva on my new trousers
All he knows is he likes salivating.
He doesn't know why
I frantically yelled at him when
he grabbed a donut from the plate I was eating
All he knows is he likes food.
He doesn't know why
I aimed my hand at him when
he broke my favorite anime action figure
All he knows is he likes breaking things.
He doesn't know why
I hit him in the head when he snatched away my
graduate certificate and tore it into million pieces
All he knows is he likes tearing papers.
Sometimes I pity him but that
rare sympathy is shattered by another one of his mischief
Sometimes I curse the deity who played
a cruel joke on my brother and
for the reason I had to put up with his attitude because
he's my sibling
But sometimes I wonder, what
goes on his mind.
As much as I despise and at the same time sympathize
with him but I can't help mulling over the fact that
he is one lucky and unlucky bastard.

A very honest and heartfelt
A very honest and heartfelt piece zeitgeist. That's a tough call and a tough situation. Not one that I would like to have to deal with. Good poem, well done.
