About Me
---The Nurse--- --- Yesterday---- You watched me stop your son's bleeding *You were glad for me to do your daughter's tube feeding *You begged me to save your significant other* You pleaded for me to relieve the pain of a dying mother *You said my work with the aged shows compassion *You said all humanity should work in this fashion ---Last night--- *You saw me and another eating dinner out *You told your friends what my day had been about* You knew me then with a show of gratitude *You were thrilled with my careing attitude *Then you saw me gently hold the hand of my lover *Now showing hate and disdain your smile could not cover ---Today--- You told your friends and their brothers *The story grew as they told more and others *The feelings of fear and betrayal and rage *Continued to grow as the story passed through the day* Someone said "a call to arms is what we need" *Then fear and contempt turned from words to deeds ---Tonight--- They arrive, in the dark, at my door *With sticks and clubs and fists they beat me to the floor *As blood spills and splatters and consciousness lags *I hear the words queer, homo, lesbian and fag * I pray for an end to the torture, suffering, and pain *To continue to breathe I have nothing left to gain ---Tomorrow--- You attend the service out of social obligation and morbid fascination *After all I was a member of every school, church, and social organization *Your child said "they only killed a queer , it could be worse" *My child said "That queer was my mother and your nurse" *You have taught your sons and daughters well *You have taught them to hate and kill and condemn to hell ***Kat*** (Copyright, L.K.

That little girl that was "raped" repetitively by her brother-in-law then "cleaned" up by her sister with noxzemia died many years ago........but I love who I am today. Much more to that little girl's story but this is enough for now.
