Poetry/ She Warrior's last Cry

She washes the dripping blood from her bottom lip

Rubs her pain throbbing hip

Hears the door slamming signaling he’s left

Gone

She sinks down to the bathroom floor

Hugging her legs to her tight

Sobbing

Sick of the fear he instills

Wishing

As always

He’d just die in the night

Her body trembles as if cold

Just let him die in the night

No more tears are falling from her… Continue

To Romancing Your Mind

I want to have a romance

to wine

and dine

your mind

Intertwining with colored strokes

your words

throughout

mine

Wrap myself within your joy

making your

imagination

soar

Whisper words inspiring within

that make you

tingle to

your core

To dance, to prance, always a beginning

never any

end

I’ll be a fairy darting to and fro

an angel,

a devil,

mysteries

you'll want to… Continue

The Federal Vampire & Zombie Agency

One of the more original web pages on vampires is The Federal Vampire & Zombie Agency (FVZA) at http://www.fvza.org

This site created by Dr. Hugo Pecos would tempt you to believe vampires and zombies are truly with us.

But do scroll down to the bottom of the page for the disclaimer.

On the other hand, if you read my vampire novels, The Dancing Valkyrie and The Vampire Valkyrie, you just might think the FVZA is yet but one more trick real vampires use to protect them and hide… Continue

The Louvre by Margot Justes

The Louvre. The one and only. One of the most-if not-the most renowned museum in the world. A ‘must see’ for every tourist visiting Paris.

Yes, it is magnificent, colossal and overwhelming. It is one of those museums where you stand in the center and breathlessly say where do I go first? What must I see this visit? For you cannot possibly see everything. The rush is on. And what a rush it is.

Set in the glorious Tuilerie gardens, the massive Romanesque structure beckons… Continue

I lived with people who went through similar stuff, but I did not experience first hand the raw intense stuff recorded in this book.
