Melissa Irene Eights
When an individual has been disabled or maimed from situations encountered in life, there must be an institution or remedy used to aid that being in restoration. Some of these situations which many individuals might encounter on a day to day basis are love, mental health, abuse and medical issues. How could humanity be deemed as humane if there was no mention of God and his relation to man and Christianity?
Are controversial topics important and are they seen as the spice of literal conversation? Can love be such a powerful vice that it causes mindless pain? Will mental patients be seen as normal functioning citizens in this society? Can educating an individual bring about a change in negative behavior? Ask yourself if an identity can be saved and restored to usefulness?
Broaden the span of your knowledge as you master the art of questioning and find the answers to these questions as you embark upon this literary express!

Abuse
He came home late, intoxicated one night
And started to beat her with all his might
Her head was swollen and rather numb.
He twisted her hand and broke her thumb!
He dragged her body across the room.
Then proceeded to beat her with a wooden broom
She tried to think of ways to leave.
Red droplets came out when she finally sneezed.
The beatings increased as the days went by
Explanation of her bruises only ended in lies,
She was too afraid to tell a soul.
Her body is now stiff and very cold!
Intake
She held her head as he started to scream
She made a mental note of his body being lean
He scratched himself in many places.
To medicate him now would be deemed as useless.
He told of how he cut his skin with broken glass
With help he would not have to live in the past
He told her of the many flying objects in the sky
All of a sudden he broke down and cried!
He seemed to calm down and then he spoke
But he spoke too fast and then began to choke.
After he finally finished telling his tale,
She noted his weight before he got off the scale.
