      Have you ever heard of night terrors? From what I know, they are severe nightmares. Many times, people have night terrors because they have been through traumatic experiences. You might look into this idea.
  • Dreams may be real or imaginary. When we think about a thing or an event very much in our practical life, a dream concerning that thing or that event touches our subconscious mind in our slumber.

      The audience should not view abuse as a man hurting a women, it can be the other way around too.

      The photographer is not bias because the picture shows how it's possible for a women to be also as abusive as a man.

      I think it might be worse for the guys to speak up because they are suppose to be "the man" and if their lady is abusing them, they might not want to speak up because they are ashamed of their situation.

      I know that man gets abuse by women also, it's easier to always blame the man because in our society men are the predator and women are usually the prey.

      When speaking of abuse i think of a women with low self esteem being ruled by an ugly man, that abuse her  and put her down.

      Are they saying women is just as likely to be the abuser just as a man is?

      The author is confusing me , at first i thought it was about an abusive father but as i read it again i'm getting the ideal that it might be about an absent father and the one memory the kid can remember with the father was when they dance together in the kitchen.  This is an ambiguity poem, it can be interpreted in so many way because of the way the author wrote the poem. The author's voice is not direct, he used a lot of play on words that makes you think the dad might be abusing the kid but in the next line use words that portrait the father as a tough but loving guy.

      ibukun Folarin on 12 Apr 13
       
      Because his father was drunk, he might be putting all his weight on the kid.

      As we all know a belt buckle can be used as a violent object, It's not unusual for a parents to use a belt on his or her children when they misbehavior especially in the past.

      It seemed that physically the dad looks tough and strong yet he's dancing around the kitchen with his son. The author might be talking about how his father literally beat him or the "beat" of the music they are dancing to.

      I'm thinking that now the boy in the poem might be unconscious, he might have passed out  and that is peaceful to him  which is the end of the hurt and pain. Or it might also be that the father did all this to make him fall asleep and before the end of their dance he has fallen asleep in his father's chest 
  • Still clinging to your shirt.

      hmm, this is definitely an abusive poem about a father, you don't cling on someone's shirt unless they are hurting you.

      The audience should really take a moment to think before they speaks because some people can take the physical abuse and not the emotion one, people that are abuse emotionally usually have low self esteem .
