The Farm: Early Years

It was the only life Mickey knew.  Wake up before the roosters, feed the livestock, milk the cows, collect the eggs, check the crops, maintain the equipment.  Day in and day out throughout his childhood, Mickey was on a guided path to becoming a farmhand.  Richard, his father, was a bull of a man who taught him everything he knew.  His mother, Susan, was a school teacher, and had a different path for Mickey.  She wanted him to get an education, to make something of himself and get out of the country.  One can see the strain opposing viewpoints can have when it comes to parenting, and no one knew it better than Mickey.

 

His older sister, Billy-Joe, was as southern belle as can be.  Her affection was desired all throughout the town, yet was never taken for granted.  Some heard of a young boy gone missing after sneaking a kiss from Billy-Joe in the hay loft, but no one ever knew where he went.  Richard made sure of that.  She and Mickey had a tight-knit relationship, and made sure to look after each other through thick and thin.  A few months after her 16th birthday, an older man came to town.  Clean shaven, well tailored suit, and an automobile as well polished as his Oxfords, Billy-Joe was smitten.  No more than a few days later, the stranger and Billy-Joe were gone with no one's knowledge but a younger brother's.

 

After Billy left, Richard's demeanor changed.  He got meaner, rougher, and took it out on Susan and Mickey.  He became a drunkard, a gambler, and a criminal.  Mickey held his head down and continued his farm work, taking it over from his devil of a father.  Mickey's mother never spoke a word out of place, never once questioned Richard, and stopped trying to give Mickey an education.  There was one man of the house, and his way was law.

 

One night, after one too many sips of shine, Richard came home to Susan with fiery, built up emotions that were ready to be let out.  Shouting, crying and the sounds of torment woke Mickey from his sleep.  Running down the stairs, he saw his parents.  Susan, half torn clothes, a bloodied lip and bruised eye.  Richard, a blacked out drunkard with a knife to her throat and a smile that would make the Devil shiver.  The final straw slipped out of Mickey's grasp, as he ran up behind his father, wrapped his arms around his neck, and fell back, bringing Richard with him.  The drunk shouted a slurred expletive, and stabbed wildly behind him, the knife landing into Mickey's arm multiple times.  Giving his father's hand a twist, Mickey kicks the knife away, climbing on top of the bastard and punching endlessly.

 

Susan screamed, Richard screamed, Mickey screamed, a barrage of noise echoed throughout the farmhouse for what seemed like hours to Mickey.  Punch after punch, mere seconds were an eternity, as years of pent up aggression and abuse from his father came pouring out of his fists.  He saw red, and didn't stop punching until the screaming stopped.  

 

He dragged his father's corpse out back, dumping his lifeless body in a 6 foot grave behind a tree.  He came back in the house to find his mother, teary eyed and frozen in place.  His bloodied body drags himself to her feet, dropping his head down to her chest as he sobs, Susan cradling her baby boy.  After that night, the Sanders family was never the same.

 

After years of normalcy, things began to look up for Mickey.  He found himself a lovely girl, and soon to be wife.  They had two beautiful children, Richard Jr. and Elizabeth.  At their early adulthood, Margaret, their mother and Mickey's heart, eventually passed.  The family found themselves distraught, but eventually grew closer because of it.

 

Four years after their mother passed, the two children grew their own aspirations and desires.  Wishing them both a great life, and a safe return, Mickey watched as his two children went off in pursuit of happiness.

 

Eventually, Mickey's mother gave into her elderly sickness and was put on her death bed.  She spent the last few days of her life with only her son and distant relatives seeking an inheritance.  The eve of her death, Susan gave her blessing to Mickey, for him to take over the farm and to be a good man like she knew he was.

 

And until this day, Mickey has held onto those words as religion, never once straying from his mother's teachings.
