Clan Keeper

The Clan Keeper

The matriarch in the totem pole;
Gave her knowledge freely.

So that her offspring would know;
The beauty of the mystery.

And each generation born;
From seeds she planted by the family tree.

Would be decoration adorned;
That sets her spirit free.

Then continues on her presence;
Throughout the centuries.

And those that acknowledge the imprints;
Are her blossoms and her leaves.

When the wind blows through the boughs;
We hear her call our names.

When the owl cries and the wolf howls;
We know her mark has sustained.

And as the family grows;
The matriarch lives in each member.

We are the seeds she sowed;
And with gratitude we remember.

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 ..
