Predator From My Past

Predator from my past

A predator form my past is here
Watching my every single move
Since police spoke to her, to stay away
Doing everything she can to have control
Of my voice, my words, my writing
After already committing infringement
She is not writing poems here yet, venomous lies
No, she is just watching from my follower list
Thinking she has the power, as always
From having cops in her pockets years ago
When she evaded justice, to go on to more atrocities
This is her way of having a view into my life!
But, time is running out, for accountability by law
The arm of the law is long and the others are gone
Her mentality has her thinking she is invincible
	             - She is not  -
And, when she steps away from the computer
My words will continue to ring loud and clear,
You will not stop my words, you will not stop my writing!
You stole my voice once as a child - never again!
