…And now for a little misogyny

She rang complained that she wasn’t feeling
well could I come? But she had said that so
many times before when I arrive and it’s
a long drive, she is usually ok; wants to talk
about her only daughter and the cruel world.
This time I said no, something wrong with my
car. They rang from the hospital she had tried
to commit suicide by jumping off the balcony
of her two storeys flat, landed on a car broke
both ankles; the car, a blue Buick got a deep
dent and the insurers are suing her. I have been
pushing her around for weeks now I’m sure she
can walk with crutches, but she hates being alone
even for five minutes. A lady in a wheel chair,
was found abandoned and crying on the middle
of a traffic island, some people can be so callous.

Loneliness is blood
on a rose’s thorn.
