Where do you work, what is your career?
Well, I'm glad you asked, I have many titles it would appear.
I'm proud of these titles, non of which require a degree.
One of my favorite titles is mom of three.
I'm a homemaker, a cleaning lady, a chef, and a maid;
a run the monsters away when they are afraid.
I'm a librarian and teacher of every subject;
a cheer leader and manager of every school project.
A counselor, a therapist, both physical and mental;
a manager of any and all incidentals.
One may also call me a chauffeur.
Some days all this driving seems much like a blur.
I'm an event planner and activities director,
and I'm putting my years in for debt collector.
A private investigator, a hostage negotiator,
a disciplinary, and a mediator.
A soul protector, security, a body guard;
and a safe place to go when life gets too hard.
I'm a personal shopper, a stylist and a hairdresser;
a go-to for advice when they want to impress her.
I'm a wife to the most wonderful husband and father;
and a listening ear when something's a bother.
Last but not least, I am a spiritual guidance;
a child of God who will always follow in His abidance.
True facts are labeled misinformation
Censorshipi is stealing my speech
Silenced again, like I was as a child
Corruption and brainwashing does this
Plase do research and not rely on media
We are on the brink of potential disaster
I have always been one to see the big picture
I have faced truth no matter how hard it is
This is also why I worked as an investigator
I will not sway with my internal beliefs,
no matter what is going on around me
Widespread darkness is falling upon us
I do not say this to spread negativity
I say this to focus on anything positive,
that can help someone survive ....
all we are dealing with and make best of time left
The sun will keep rising, upon us each day
Each one of us has gifts of talent
When the storns roll, we can focus on the clearing
Strength is in anyone who chooses to seek it
Strong in the storms, with a heart gentle as pastel skies,
that will return and renew....I hope this message rises

Retired now, the Government calls me a carer.
Now I ask you what could be fairer?
They pay me a few dollars to look after my better half.
They explain that I save them the cost of employing staff.
Well, I won’t tell them, but they could have saved their money,
He won’t have a cook or a cleaner or nurse, he is such a honey,
My dear hubby refuses to have anyone in the house.
So, they could have kept their money, but I am being quiet as a mouse.
In days gone by I had a job of responsibility before I retired,
I did the job well, worked ethically and was sometimes wired.
Before I became (I guess you could say) a domesticator,
I was actually a licensed private and commercial investigator.
Lee Retiree, 66 Remix
Never one to be lazy,
Lee’s energy astonishes,
Clarity hallmark avoids the hazy,
Kristie et. al. he garnishes,
Materials investigator a la Dick Tracy,
Friends, Lee never tarnishes,
Quick stick moves as a Blue Jay,
Loyalty, he harnesses,
Learned from all at Poly,
Save the nobility (Kedusha),
Of the morning (Youthfully),
For some, retiree harshness,
An evening, but we wish Lee’s a dawning Be!

Exactly just how
Morally corrupt
And bent
Either a
Judge or a Policeman
Must be
If they are chosen or picked
To investigate into
Or lead an enquiry
In regards to judging corruption
Of their own
They surely must have more
Skeleton's in their closet
Than every cemetery
In the known world
Either that or they have
Dementia or Amnesia
How you saw two enemies
Laughing at each other.

Now you see two former enemies

In our home TV choices
Are subject to much debate
Programmes one may like
Can make another feel irate
Its Friday night tonight
So it’s with a sense of doom
I see tonights selection
Playing in the living room……..
Car programmes of every kind
Rally, racing and repairs
Like ‘Extreme Suzuki 4x4’ -
It’s the stuff of my nightmares
And wait, there’s so much more
Of ‘Global Investigator’ calibre
How about ‘Mysteries of the Deep’
And ‘Paranormal Caught on Camera’?
Theres ‘Storage Wars’ and ‘River Monsters’
And ‘Islands’, both ‘Oak’ and ‘Snake’
But for me it’s ‘Expedition Unknown’
That really takes the bloody cake
I find none of this inspiring
And I’m feeling quite unhinged
As payback I will subject them
To a ‘British Bake Off’ binge
I would have to say the greatest performance of my life is survival
And turning bad things into something positive to help others
I survived severe trauma as a child, I was silenced and deeply hurt
I survived Cancer later, accidents, Lyme disease, near death experiences
I survived by working in human services to help others, giving to friends
And I assisted a leader volunteering at a support group in the area
I was an investigator and I pursued justice for many years
Most of all, I create as best I can to spread what I have in my soul
I write – I paint – I play piano
I hope that my words of truth will reach others however possible
I hope that my music will bring peace and relaxation
I hope that my paintings will bring happiness and inspiration
I turned the bad into good to survive because this can be achieved
I am also a mother to my loving, special pets who mean so much to me
We can always give and share and love and inspire others
Regardless of what we have been through, this is what I have learned

Jessica Drew, the original Spider-Woman
Self-proclaim "I have never needed rescuing
Brainwashed spy working for HYDRA.
Memories of being a spider implanted into her
Had fear-inducing pheromones, a previously unrevealed ability.
Tended to be the character such as a female Spider-Man.
Spider-Woman perish in a climactic battle
With her nemesis Morgan le Fay
Jessica Drew also once was a private investigator,
and at one time an Avenger

From anthology Marvel Comics Poetry BIOS
"A Whiskers Tale: Watching the Detectives"
Her whiskers tickle
when the lights go out
hormonal huntress
on the prowl
Moonlight chasing
itsy bitsies
up the wall
a silent investigator
tap dancing silently
soft as mink and sibilant
paws poised
across a different kind of
polished slippery dance floor
criminally inclined
researching minds
a baby in her
isolation crib
for sure
soft-shoe shuffling
never bored.

I bolt the door, each door I bolt.
Blood quickens, gonging in my ears:
The panther's tread is on the stairs,
Coming up and up the stairs..."

I am an armchair detective
An armchair forensic anthropologist
An armchair criminal investigator
I solve every case; and quickly.
I am an armchair forensic pathologist.
An arm chair blood spatter analytic technician.
I solve murder after murder
On a daily basis.
My note
I want to write a note
With the taste of bile
I want to write a note
To Samson and not Delila
I want to know in the note
Why Delila didnt have eyes
To see it coming
Why didnt she know it was coming?
I want yo write a note
And in the note I shall note
That I am an investigator
Not an invigilator
I seek to know
Why Samson had to lie
Why he still lies
Why Samson lives on
within us today
And Why the present Delila
Has never seen it coming
I want yo write a note
But i can't see my pen
Has Samson hidden it?
C'mon Samson
Do i look like Delila?
I can see it coming
Mr giant,I shall find my pen!
It's gonna be sooner
Than your long strides
I shall soon write my note
I'm In balcony
Observing the silence of
circumstances of surrounding
Without human
Every part of nature is as usual
in own position
(In disguise of savior
and corona patient investigator
Some fiends rape a young girl!)
This news forces me to write-
Covid-19 has not come for illiterate country!
Lockdown is not wise decision for undeveloped country!
To illiterate poor and conscienceless educated rich
here rumors are trustworthy prophecies!

Thousands of covid-19 infected patients die everyday
Dangerous the virus I believe it just on hearing way
Where are the dead bodies? Where are their families?
I do not know actually; who tell me about these please
We know thousands of peoples die everyday overall the world usually
It's easy if imperialist politicians count some from them in this covid-19 rally
I'm not the investigator, not I'm the charity provider
Yet wanna know- comes from where the pandemic server?
Someone replies me it's a curse for sinner from the creator God
Someone advises- it's natural plague, over it do not think a lot
As a theist I believe God creates everything only for beautifying
I disbelieve that God destroys His creations for own angry appeasing
Conscience is the true power of knowledge; if we had conscience
Excess thinking would be fruitful in our inter relationship about worldly sense
It's our world, come, leave the myth of religion, try to save it as God's beauty
Save all with the nature, spread humanity with love killing political hypocrisy

The Prevaricator
He snatched a hapless investigator
Created a national fantasy!
To deny and demolish another's success
and productivity!
So filled with raging jealousy was he,this
hapless bozo lost all his pathetic integrity.
Attempting to follow no rules, just to go
and destroy our democracy!
