Best Familywomen Poems


3 Months In Jail

a nurse,4kids and a stepson,
then came the crystal meth.

she used it and liked it,
men beat her bloody and they loved it.

the highs helped the lows,
the lows of a drunken husband of 14 yrs
and a father doing 60 yrs in prison
for rape of his younger daughter.

3 months in jail with women just like her,
3months in jail with women worse then her.

the tattoo behind her leg said it all
"TAINTED".
