Veronica Joseph Poet I do not know?

The Prisioner and the Jailer

the jailor and the prisioner
the addicted and the addict
the enabler and the addict
daughter chooses a crackhead husband
who forbids her to see her family
he beats her
and she stays
because
when he's sober he's great.
I've seen him
He's satan.

William Kershaw January 29, 2010 at 4:03 PM Veronica, too, too true and I too have seen him. He took a friend of mine a few days ago. He fought to the end. But lost. Well done dear lady, as always. Hope your friend finds her way out. Love, Will
