She wept
for her innocence swept
Under the rug
Do your heartstrings tug?
Ma, why didn't you see
what he was doing to me?
Obvious to those
that gave a damn, I suppose
Right under your nose
but you were high on blow
You walked in, or didn't you know?
He was your friend, but my nightmare
Who looks to a 9 year old for an affair?
In the end he couldn't complete his deed
spared the wrath of his filthy seed
He started my liquid addiction
soothing my ceaseless affliction
He wound up dead
you said I should cry, but I laughed instead
She wept
for her innocence swept
under the rug
Ma replied with a shrug.

This is obviously a very sensative issue with a lot of pain, yet handled in a masterful fashion. The poem itself is subperb in its style and form. Being able to put it into a perspective that is tolerable is truely a talent in itself. As an aside....when I was in clinical practice, it never ceased to amaze me as to how many women were abused.
Well done, really well done, Scorp

To laugh at something this vile is nothing
other than strength in it's purest form..
and to put it to paper is more than-
I don't know what else to say..
Brave and beyond-
Love-

Wow, Scorp, that is powerfully sad. Damn great write if I say so myself and no I'm of course not offended but can't help but say it choked me up. I understand someone's need to laugh in a situation like this , however, for myself, it was hard not to get all choked up while reading it. Seems saying powerful write isn't powerful enough for this one but I am at a loss for words (even though I just typed several). Simply put....you are a great poet / writer!!!!! Never stop....please!!!! |

I would be very angry if something like that happened to a child. This must have been a hard write. |
