Violette Poetry - Picture This
*****
restless sleep... the nightmares..
i shut my eyes some-wheres.
to find myself upstairs...
gasping... gagging...
in a darkroom hidden...
i felt as if chidden...
was I in a midden...
my guilt... bragging...
thinking I was dying...
face wet... i'd been crying...
my eye's felt blank...prying...
voices slagging...
she won't catch us again...
she's no room to complain...
how many cried in-vain...
and her blagging...
kept for to long starving...
bad thoughts they were starting...
but glad to be parting...
picture tagging...
