Deirdre

It’s been 8 years and she hasn’t shaken him off.
There were no details of their matrimony, but there were details of her litigation.

Her life is lawyers, hearings, caring for a disabled daughter and her own disabled life.

Her last hope costs $950 an hour.

Franchesca

Broken nose, broken clavicle
Only one report to the police
She doesn’t want to take the kids from him

He is not at home, so she can call
Scattered, lost, a little girl in trouble

Illegal and scared
She deserves the broken bones

Rosemary

A river of warm glow in my heart
She is surrounded by fools that make her angry
Only wants to understand, “why do narcissists exist?”

The world feels cold to her and it makes her angry
She also feels like she breaks

I actually felt connected to her, how lovely she is
