came saw conqured
i threw food at unaquanted strangers more afraid than there
you held me tight against the bathroom sink
i slept with eight till nine
i cried, walked and screamed from two o'clock till six in the morning, surprised at my own response to your actions
i was picked up by the police from the street and contemplated throwing myself in a canal,
would have if not for your hands around my wrists
became accustomed to the warmth of beings full of well meaning around me
:a dog being trained with the flocks help. i learned, accepted us.
