Rather than secretly
divulging a sinister tragedy
that is her life,
where scoundrels are to blame
and she remains the innocent baby girl
forever.
Rather than hating the others,
petrifying her victim stance,
and trying to get you to agree,
she listens and shares at her meetings.
She adjusts her perceptions.
She right-sizes events in her mind and
discovers that they are long gone,
that only her blame keeps them alive.***
Consequently, she is released from
self-appointed duty as prosecutor
at eternal judgment day,
where she had become the prisoner.
Eventually her experience normalizes,
her emotional climate mellows.
She is liberated… to be an adult,
live in today, envision some goals,
and manifest a good life.
