In the poem Papa’s Waltz it was a story about a father and son bond. While I was read in the poem I found some evidence about the father was abusive to his son like in the beginning of the poem when the father came home drunk off of whiskey, on line 1 and 2 they could almost lead father to be violence to his son because he was drunk then I read line 3 when it talking about ‘’death’’ example the hung on like death and how could it be a lovely poem about a father and son relationship but I see in the poem is abusive/scared from the beginning of the poem papa’s waltz and after that it got more abusive in the poem on line 9 and 10 it say in the poem the father holds the son’s hand and lead him in the dance but because his knuckle is battered this
