There’s that poet ~ let’s frighten and humiliate her some more.

God Forbid

God forbid that she should know
A single moment’s peace
A little simple happiness
One day’s unclouded ease

God forbid that such as she
Ever should receive
That in which she has so long
And so faithfully believed

Forbid that ~ conscientiously
As she may ever serve,
Refusing from the narrow paths
Of righteousness to swerve ~

She might some shred, some modicum
Of contentment deserve —
She did as her good conscience bid
Yes, she did — God forbid

This poet works for the good of her nation and society, seven days a week.

She’s in a pretty bad fix right now ~ due to the new crime of online targeting already homeless, now for the same reason the van she lives in has stopped running. Not a hope of fixing it without donations.

SHE WILL NOT SIGN AWAY HER CIVIL RIGHTS AND ABANDON HER POSSESSIONS TO ENTER IMPRISONMENT IN A “SHELTER.” SHE WILL NOT WAIT FOR IMPRISONMENT FOR AN UNPAYABLE FINE.

One ticket is death. Real.

Arts patrons may visit http://www.UgiftABLE.com to make donations of any amount, using code 72D-31S. It will take about two weeks for the poet to be notified of your patronage.

International donors should contact her through these comments or the contact page address on this site for special instructions.

Thank you for supporting quality in the fine arts.
