Tinnitus
Louis Gibbs said:
A good poem, Fred, describing a cruel affliction. My sympathy! My hearing affliction is quite different ... called \'sensory overload\', a symptom of Asperger\'s syndrome. Loud or sharp noises cause pain. We just learn to live with them, as you have done quite well, apparently. I appreciated your fine poem.

Very strong write, it is an awful problem for many. One of my friends has it and he gets so angry about it sometimes.

It\'s not really voices in the head, is it? That\'s something else. Thankfully I don\'t have this myself. But know what you mean, when we \'hear sounds\' in silent places.

Four Shorts: Concupiscence / Longing / Old Couple / Love

Wow! I liked everyone. So graceful writing. I know what you mean about old love and the underwear washing. I think when we get older together we become more like brother and sister. It is truly love. I\'ve got divorced from my only husband but we are now like brother and sister. We still loving each other.

Four brilliant, touching short ones, Fred. It takes a special poetic mind to speak so well with so few words ... not a one wasted! Kudos.

Fred.. nice one... i\'m tempted to think, from your comment on my \'dont look\' piece, i jogged your memory. How wonderful those early clumsy fumbles at love have blossomed into the story of your life my friend. I envy any man who has had the fortune to remain wed for life. No, i know you ain\'t dead yet.

Alcohol, for some people, is the only way to have a temporarily break from what they are suffering. They need the break to survive, like a drowning person would grab anything he could reach, even though, that something might get them killed. I do understand them. It is a tragedy for everyone involved in it. Thank you for bring it up.

In my rich and colourful life i\'ve actually been on the other side of this. My lovely partner of 8stone (112lbs) and 5ft 5 used to get so wound up she would attack me. i didnt retaliate for i knew i\'d be arrested. The marks on me, she couldnt seriously hurt me, were the evidence. Twice neighbors called the police. I\'ve never spoken about it. I wrote about her in joey played saxophone. Understanding is diffiicult because she was the love of my life. That poem says it all.

Firstly respect to Candlewitch for sharing.
Also respect to Fred for broaching this subject and expressing so brilliantly through words from your imagination. Fantastic!
I\'ve been there too, but with mental \'abuse\' instead in the form of controlling - this doesn\'t have physical marks to show. I had managed to pick the same sort of person as my Dad (as we do) in a relationship. I wouldn\'t focus on abuse of women though, as I also have knowledge of the opposite side - it\'s just even more swept under the carpet, because it\'s not seen as being strong. :-(
The \'reason\' this all comes up time and again and is never going to go away, is because although intelligent, we are still animals essentially. There is no \'excuse\' despite this for the instigators, such as drink, etc., but only respect for those with a will to change.

HI STEVE ~ They ar not Church members who have been assaulted but ladies from the Community who have come to the Church for Sanctuary because they know the Men are Gentlemen and the Ladies Angels. As a Church we have access to Safe Houses for Battered Wives ~ Salvation Army and YMCA for under 30\'s Violent Men hate to lose their hold on vulnerable Ladies so we often have to face violent Men ! In my experience all churches are Sanctuaries for those in Society who are hurting ~ OK BRIAN
