Its Happening Everywhere
she had enough curiosity to kill a thousand cats but not about sex
she awoke to him on top of her AGAIN then a quick blow to the head
she had been stricken temporarily dumb
suddenly she had a sharp penetrating eruption of rage and hatred and alien that belonged in
as science fiction movie
on a deep instincual level he knew what was coming next
his conscious mind could not-or would not-put a name on it but his subconscious knew what
it was
he fled out the door in a blind-panic as wide-eyed and spooked as a dumb animal reacting to
headlights
she had a moment of vulnerability as the door swung shut behind him
her exquistely shaped and hormoniously related features bespoke sensitivity and refinement
opposite of a parody of seduction
she felt like she was attacked by a pack of rats
was she able to go after her attacker this time the fifth time the last time she knew who he
was and where he lived
she quietly moved around his bed as he drooled and dreamed and put the knife to his throat
then slapped him in the face
he began pleading and apologyzing squrrying and ceaselessly crying in what almost sounded
like a guttural foreign language
finally she made her point and left him to drown in his guilt but as soon as she closed the
door she heard a "BANG"
he took his own life he ended their pain all she could do was scream"NO DAD!"
TO MANY CHILDREN ARE ABUSED BY RELATIVES AND WE IGNORE THE SIGNS
THESE ARE THE ONES WE LOVE WE MUST OPEN OUR EYES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
