A Lasting Solution
She was Thirteen years old.
Sitting on a bed reading the Gideon Bible
The Hotel was in L.A.
Skid Row

Ran away did She
Anger and Hatred of
Her perpetual life with
Hurts and punishment

There She Sat
Knowing that it could
Not Continue
What to do NOW

Walking along the
Street of bums and
Pretty girls, hunger
Starting to build

No money for her
Life to continue
Here in L.A.
She had to Go

Home again to
Deal with the Agents
Of Pain of Mind and
Body unhealed

In another World
She moved to
Home dissolved
Into the Art of Mind and Hand

Here she dwells
Now in the long
Decades of life
This World Sustains and Nourishes
