You didn’t have much to do with doctors. / Not since that last one called you a / Psychopath. I needed to make more of an / Impression, y…
Poor dear M. I knew; and every comment reported here was uttered by her Beau of the moment. A teenage alcoholic daughter was out to lunch (in all senses) and from time to time a meat chop would be whirled across the carpet at an aged, emaciated dog. M. was one of those lovely good people who couldn’t hurt a fly, and whose lives are an accident waiting to happen. Watch yourself next time you visit Oxford Circus – where I had my own pockets picked, shortly before writing this.
Nose smeared across my face / Eye welting swelling by second / Blood spurting from a cut to brow / And tooth sorely spat to ground
Is it wise…?
What do you do when your only real choice is to sleep with the hunter? Men, you can’t live with them, or without them, (goes for women too). However this is meant to be deeper than that, it is brief and to the point. What happens when your needs outweigh your fears…is it wise to sleep with the hunter, even when he calls you dear?
if you knowingly play with another human being’s mind / to cause them to live in fear and make mistakes / -are you not a despicable person …
This is about political, sexual, mental, emotional, physical, and financial abuse. This is addressed to the people who don’t take responsibility for the damage they cause, and the toll it takes on their victim’s life.
Far away from the guns that roar / An innocent child / A victim of war
See the little girl there in the corner, / She doesn’t understand the reason why, / Whatever did she do to make them hate her, / Why does ev…
From “Road to the Summit” / A Collection of Songs by Dave Law. I wrote this after seeing an image of a lost and lonely little girl in a magazine. / So many children feel alone and unwanted, they think that they are worthless and unloved. It only takes a smile, an act of loving kindness to change a little persons life. / If you see someone without a smile, give them one of yours.
Oh lord can you hear my prayer as I lie here in this bed.
A tale about a woman’s prayer for help!
Society continues to fail her; ineffective SERVICES betray her / No help for her in gaining freedom from her captive mind / There is no rel…

Admittedly, one of my darker, pissy and disgusted moments… As a result of receiving “Foreclosure” paperwork for our property in California, we were dependent upon for retirement (hubby is 67).
THEY WENT TO WORK / WITH A GLEAM IN THEIR EYES / THEY NEVER EXPECTED / IT WAS THEIR DAY TO DIE THEY KISSED THEIR FAMILIES / FOR THE VERY L…

She can’t see the problem is she’s searching in one place, clawing at the dirt with her one question, / “And why do you think that is?”

Invitation to Tasmania. / Restore your energies and visit Cradle mountain. / Play Tennis, Canoe, Climb mountains
Need a Break? / Need a Holiday for you family? / Need a quiet time on your own?
I’m pulling down my jeans, when he says, / “I’m behind you,” / and suddenly a rage comes of men behind me:

What Lies Underneath…A Victim…
I can be like an angel / from heaven sent from above / but don’t try to hurt me / or you’ll feel the sting of my claws. /
.. we all have an affinity we can relate to , don’t we? Since I am an insomniac and I can relate to the moon, the stars, vampires, werewolves and owls, I thought about the tiger and the cat who are really night creatures like myself. I was up practically all night writing my affinity with the tiger and the cat and how my transformation takes place just as in real life I become full awake comes night fall. This was done for a challenge at the group Lifeline
... all the others working, working, / whistling while they work, while you’re / at sea, adrift, about to weep.
I shall be released.
Come along quietly, Sir. Yes that’s the way. / The victim died of his head wounds today.
Written for a project about the death penalty. / I wanted to keep it simple and to the point but look at it from another angle. Featured by Lifeline – 6th Aug 2009 / Journal Featured by Imperfectly – 12th Aug 2009 / MCN:CU2QG-UJAYE-MNN3H

FEATURED IN THE WORLD HOW WE SEE IT..OR HOW WE MISSED IT.Oct 2009 / FEATURED IN INSPIRED BY LIFE Oct 2009 / FEATURED IN IMORTAL LOVE Oct 2009 / I write this with respect, for all those writers that pen their hurts ..we read / we comment we want to change the scene but can do little but support with words. / This is my little tribute of support for those who continually write in past and pain.Those who have had their heart or souls abused by love or something in disguise of this. Rise again Damsels and knights in distress…...be victorious!!!
I have pain in my chest which becomes unbearable / It is like a white hot blade slicing through my / pulsating heart
This is not autobiographical, although sometimes I feel that I am in a well of desperation. This was written on a day of the “blues” and sometimes like everyone else, I have my good and bad days. Featured in The Beauty of Poetry – 10th Dec 2009
