You Were Right

“You were right.

Your deepest darkest fears were not unfounded.

The vagina dentata is not a mythical nightmare.

It truly is real.

The teeth are real.

Teeth that bite and tear and sever.

And they are ours.

You thought you were safe, that everything and everywhere was yours.

You were wrong.

You violated your word, our space, our bodies, us.

We are not yours and we’re coming to remind you.

With our hidden pointed teeth.

Like piranhas

We shall consume you.

You can’t stay out of the water to keep yourself safe

Because everywhere is our ocean.

We have cried enough tears to flood the world

Thanks to you.

And now we shall swim wherever we please

With our teeth ready and vision clear.

Every bite, a tower consumed.

Bones scattered and broken

Like promises and gaslight lamps.

Look over your shoulder,

The tide is rising and

She is coming.

Justice may be blind,

But she has two sets of teeth.”

I have joined with many parents affected with the surreal , yet accepted issue of child abuse via Pathogenic Parenting / Domestic abuse. As a survivor of Domestic Abuse, denial abounded that 3 sons were not affected. In my desire to be family to those who have found me lacking . As a survivor of psychiatric abuse, therapist who abused also and toxic prescribed medications took me to hell on earth with few moments of heaven. I will share my life, my experiences and my studies and research.. I will talk to small circles and I will council ; as targeted parents , grandparents , aunts , uncles etc. , are denied contact with a child for reasons that serve the abuser ...further abusing the child. I grasp the trauma and I have looked at the lost connection to a higher power.. I grasp when one is accustomed to privilege, equality can feel like discrimination.. Shame and affluence silences a lot of facts , truths that have been labeled "negative". It is about liberation of the soul from projections of a alienator , and abuser ..
