PEOPLE WHO...
Some people
do not want harm
to come to children,
any child;
they make great effort
to save and protect them.
Others don't care
and shoot them:
easy targets,
wide-eyed,
looking at you
before they die –
What a thrill
to get attention
before the end.
Life isn't worth
living, anyway.
BANG!
SWINGING TIME
Swing high,
swing low,
emotions go
and go.
Medication taught
brain new levels
of serotonin well
and brain responds
with steadier stream
more constant calm
and even thinking.
Emotions now
assist function
not impede,
and life, life
takes reliable
turn with peace,
serenity and hope.
DIGNITY NECESSITY
Driving down the quiet
neighborhood street,
dignified, refined
houses, lives –
all looks well.
In one house,
inside its walls,
between the studs,
hidden between,
is a body
tiny, secret –
mummified
it could not live,
I could not allow...
it simply could not.
The stigma
would have been
simply unbearable!
