Well, it happened
I shouldn't have posted that' poem
NOT FROM A HAILSTORM
I forgot her daughter stalks my poetry-
like a myspace ******

At this time I must confess
I have no real talent
I just jot down words from memory
It's really not a skill

So my sister karen flies up from florida
She probably has money left over from
robbing me back in 2000
and in the seventies
and in the eighties
and in the nineties

It wasn't good enough for her to smash
My two year old brain in
with her heavy wood doll in 1960

or grabbing my ears and smashing
the back of my skull until
the pain turned to numbness from '65 to '70

or giving her girlfriend Laura the keys
to our house in maywood so that Laura could
steal whatever she wanted

It wasn't good enough
that her daughters would steal
Whatever they wanted
Whenever they wanted

So, I had one request
STOP VISITING ME
LEAVE ME ALONE
and they won't even grant me that' dying wish

But, a parasite needs to feed
off the unsuspecting
or they will die

Well, there is no more forgiveness
left
for any of them

So she tricks the library
into thinking she wants to surprise me
Takes a burning zippo
and scorches the back of my neck with it
I was quite surprised

Just think
If I never let her get away
with robbing me all those years
she could not have been able
to afford her act of vengeance

My sister karen knows how to cause neck pain
