One poem titled Inevitable, written about five years ago, talks about taking a life:
She watches some life drain from the notch in his neck vein.
As it soothingly pools it smothers her pain.
Sweet stiletto so sharp craves another cut.
Obeying a call she moves to his gut.
Blade traces a line from navel to spine
grating on rib bones slicing intestine.
Another poem titled Working Happy, from about six years ago, focuses on her care for the elderly:
Maybe it's the rye or the time of night but my day was not so bad.
Filled with work and satisfaction and old people.
See I work with old people and I love their candidacy,
their points, their wrinkles, their frailties their refusing to eat anything but ice cream, even their smell.
