Her Slave Poem by Anna Ballard

Her Slave



Breathing stops,
Heartbeat faults,
Eyes glaze,
Skin chills.

Nothing matters anymore,
Troubles long since gone.
Except for the maggots,
That eat you to the bone.

Red roses,
Yellow daisies,
and white callalilies
Cover your grave.

Family weeps,
Friends grieve,
Children wonder
Why death claimed you her slave.
