Oprah
and some counseling
Pleas
and self-help books
shattered phone
can't call police
threats and craft
and God's mercy...
Psychotropics
shot of booze
of all the choices
I could choose
Enraged, all option overlooked--
I developed a mean left hook.

All words said
and all deeds done
(possible)
more to come...
I must confess.
I do attest,
of all the feelings
I could have felt
nothing...but
remorselessness.
Void regrets'
absolution
cold
and hard
and mean, but true--
simple satisfaction, blue...

Serenity,
I'm not sure I understand this piece, but it is darkly beautiful.

All my love,
Jeffrey

jeffery...
sometimes ya gotta read between the lines...

serenity...
sweets, its along walk from where I am to where you are...
but I think I could walk on my lips to get there...
just to hug ya(smile)
powerful poem my poetice twin...makes my heart hurt...but I know we feel better when we write it all out...
take care, my serenity-girl, please
jm

 Well the sun sets gently on your shoulders
And it makes me want to touch you there.
And the light in your eyes makes me feel
Like there's something much better out there
Something kind...
And I know someday I might be looking around
Trying to find some purpose
Well purpose it can't be that hard to find
As long as I've got the wind...
The wind and your love to carry me.
vertical horizon

             those lips)  Much love,m'twin.

Rex Allen--you don't need this kind of excitement, luvie--

And to you all---I don't really like to explain so much--but I felt I should at least write a 'disclaimer' on this:
Not an incident that happened recently (mmm..2 yrs. ago, maybe...)  I just FELT like decking him last night--wrote this poem instead.  But the point is, how abuse transforms the abused into abuser...how it hardens and inures them psychologically and even physically to love...and leaves them without capability of remorse...This poem is
a result of the child abuse theme of late...
a theme I find extremely difficult--couldn't fathom--can't relate--except on this personal level...So worry not...Serenity is indeed serene...(But I DO have a mean left hook...)  I send you love.  Go spread it around.
