Sisterhood

We escape to the light
to revel in the sight
of the ones we hold most dear

Yet often it seems
the jealousy beams
through eyes once so bright, so clear

I will retrench and view
the enmity accrue
but the effort will cost me dear

So that you, the beguiling,
shorn from those reviling
may arrest my most pressing fear

-dedicated to Elisabeth, should she view this

Hi Miranth. I love the poem. Hope you're okay.

Hi BC!

Yes, I am ok.

This post is about a creepy, vitriolic, and misogynist control freak who is close to some of my friends. I sincerely hope no one is hurt irrevocably by this person. The situation is quite horrible, but not of my making, and there is little I can do to correct it.

So I blogged about it instead :)

The good news for me is that I recognize the source of the problem and can avoid the situation. I just hope others will listen before its too late.

Miranth, that's horrible. I hope your friends will be aware of what that person is doing in time before anyone gets hurt.

BC, his girlfriend's sister now knows the problem - she had forgotten a lot of incidents that when put together are pretty creepy. So hopefully this will get resolved...

Thank you for your concern :) I appreciate it! *hugs*

Hi BC!

I missed the hugs too!

About the dude described above, I think the poem was some sort of hex! As I was writing and posting it that night, my friend was calling the police to control him!!!! He's entirely out of all of my friends' lives at this point. Thank god!

I hope your B-day was good? If you really need that Wii you should write a poem about it - I'm telling you it works! :)

Miranth, that's great news! I think to hope that that man deserved to be locked up. how ae you? *hugs*

Thank you for leaving me a birthday comment. I am having difficulty finding a Wii on Ebay, it's so competitive with the bidders, but apparently, Nintendo is going to produce more of them later this year.

Have a great day!
