Experienced? Isn’t it OK when your welfare mama gets out all those familiar tools making screams outta her pain? Isn’t it OK when your drunken, bewildered father beats her, leaves her a bloody mess then comes lookin for you? Isn’t it OK when the gangsters break in rape your spouse over, over, over then finish with laughing torture? Isn’t it OK when the other inmates hold you down, cursing and screaming and no one ever comes to rescue? Isn’t it OK when your child rebels, snaps mirrors the generational rage seemingly without beginning nor end? Isn’t violence OK when it has a life of it’s own a monster grown, cultivated and released with experience? DJBurt 2/00 EndoftheRoad (all rights reserved) there is only one... Romans 10:9-10 |

It's never OK when there's human suffering involved. You present doors, behind which most have no desire to look. The writing is strong and real. It touches nerves. Many lives are lived in quiet despiration! Live on in peace! DH |

It's a shame that many people actually experience these things every day. Very sad. Well written poem! Denise |

I know. I also know this, and it may be surprising to some, but being punched in the face does not hurt--it's the HEALING that hurts like hell. |
