jolene is a song
and now the wife and i have moved past
self-defense and accusation
she seems to believe he coerced me
but anyway
now i know what i've been suspecting
he's been using sweetheart tactics to steal
based on what he knows about david, hugo and joe
threatening to break my arm or kill me or my client
for money
he gets really angry and threatening when i say no and then pretends he didn't
and for reasons a bit complicated to blog
this is now about my mother, not the wife, mind
except that a mother is supposed to be able to help a fractured child figure out what's normal
and guide her (or him) away from abusive relationships
not push her toward them and say it's nothing to do
with mommy dearest
but she has been pushing me toward abusive men and destruction
since she laid eyes on clint
so i really won't be talking to her ever again
this is not the kind of mother who can ever help
the kind of mother who would force her daughter into a place
where either she is in danger of being raped or killed every day
or has to try to love a man
so she feels just that much safer every day
