If you stretch your ovaries to your knees
Is child bearing even a thing?
I hear wedding bells muffled in Chicago
Promising love
Witnessed my mothers vicious attacker
Repeated offender
"There comes daddy!"
I'd cry when he was absent
I'd cry when he broke all the expensive China
Love was a harbored ship cut loose caught ablaze
On to the next
A man who survived two near deaths
The bottle prematurely put down to stretch a few more years
Addictions not going anywhere
Your livers shutting down
I never feared more than the men my mother loved
I never coped with being in love
The first caterpillar stings rosey finger tip
I'm drowning
I'm sabotaging
I don't know how to love you
Three hurricanes strike
Though no one notices.
Because the weather man doesn't report rapes...
