Unloved to death
Pamela McDiarmid 1987 (Melbourne)
One drop,
Two drops,
Three drops.....four;
There goes her blood,
Spilling on the floor.
She just couldn't take it
Or fake it....
..........anymore.
Dig her grave.
Dig it deep.
Cover her in dirt,
From her head to her feet.
Place a broken heart on the plaque above;
To remind them all;
They made her feel so unpretty, unwanted, unworthy..unloved.
