Wildings

WILDLINGS

This goes out to the mamas

raising the wild ones

the not to be tamed

the rare

the reckless

and the precious

you are shaping stardust

into human form

minding moonlight

till it’s ready to instruct the tides

and light the nights

do not expect the world to see

your diamond in the rough

sparkle

not yet

they cannot

but one day

they will be unable

to take their eyes away

from its shine

to the mamas of the wild ones

you are star gatherers

moon catchers

and dream shapers

and you are exhausted

but shaping starlight

into human form

was always going to be tough

and you are.

Donna Ashworth

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 ..
