[hometext] =>
[bodytext] => The other night at work I was answering phones as usual, What I heard on the other end was chilling and brutal. A woman's awful scream and the sound of things breaking, My pulse starts to race, her life I hope, he's not taking. The police are quickly dispatched and on the way, All I can do now is listen and pray. I hear the children crying, saying "Please, Daddy Stop." I know that he won't untill confronted by the cops. My heart goes out to her with each hit and slap, Then anger kicks in, no one should have to go through that. The screaming continues, the house torn apart, How can a husband have such a cruel heart. I still hear her crying, begging him to stop. He calls her a name, says "You deserve what you got." The police arrive on the scene and put the man in cuffs, They take him to jail but is that enough? He'll spend the night in jail and probably bail out, I hope when he gets out he finds she's left the lout. But more likely than not she'll stay with her man, And on a later night this call will come in again.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
