Giant breasts make noise, Like wood slats rubbing do- Turning and rolling, Deformed women, some With broken teeth, some with Bleeding cuts, the most grotesque Are near to death. Their large hands reach To grasp my throat; And I can't deny these haunts Approach, this night that encroach My sleep, from behind curtained wings. Constant, more come, acting Rage tableaus; Could these Women (seen baroque) be Those in normal life That stay in foul relationships, Sustaining delt abuse? Flights of Amazons Fresh from fights, All former beauties, Many horrors Have they seen; Pain and grief Has made them ugly.. Witnesses, Of their own beatings These battered mutants Now tear me apart, And stir in a bubbling caldron A meal of flesh (In lieu of their evil mates) For them, of me... But why am I tortured, consumed? I did not strike them! I never abused them, I speak out against it, Curse the ones that do it- Yet I suffer For the deeds of cruel men In this battered womens, Nightmare-dream.

Ford, great to see you, and what an entrance, Bless you dearheart for this... Why the nightmares, b/c your more sensitive to the issue, your soul realizes, what hurts others also hurts you...upon which the violations are an insult to society/humanity...and I really hope this country wakes up soon...we've become immune to crime...making this acceptable behavior... it is not Hugs to you for your words, concern, and most of all...sincerity |

I believe what I witnessed of the BTK confessions would have given me a nightmare such as this, myself. Never have I witnessed such calm composure of hideousness... Thank you for YOUR sincerity, Ford. |

Ford, I love your heart, your mind, your soul...and it doesn't surprise me in the least that you might 'suffer' alongside the those who suffer this form of torture. You ARE such a gentle heartbeat, m'friend. |
