I just finished a story dealing with this subject. Sometimes it's mommy's little girl. Terrible as seems thousands of women molest their daughters. The comedian Paula Poundstone ruined her career when she was arrested for molesting her daughter.

Oh ... poetry and stories about child abuse not only break my heart into tinier pieces than it's already been broken into, Gypsy, but they also make me so angry too (the subject matter, not the poet).
How ANYONE could willingly hurt, damage, or knowingly defile a child is beyond even my comprehension, and I can, and have, comprehended quite a few horrific scenarios in my day.
Good horror haiku--one that is not about zombies nor vampires or "things" that go bump in the night.
These types of monsters really exist!

That is a terrifying haiku. I have mentored women who have been sexually abused by a father or a father figure and in those few words, I'm confident you captured their worst nightmare. Incredible. Incredibly well written.

Oh, how hard this one hits in that final line! There aren't many people around that can put so much meaning into so few words. There is remarkable intensity in this one. Kudos!

Oh Gypsy
Your haiku of how the fearful footsteps a child fearing her dad's footstep nearing her room with the words you used, Yes put terror in me just reading of how the child felt

This speaks a pathetic state of daddy's little girl who must have lost her way on stepping in the hallway and she must be now frightened being lost from the parents; I liked.

Very powerful poem. It took my breath a little. Fear is such a force and we have all heard the footsteps in the hallway Again, very powerful message with so few words. Even the last line is subject to so many interpretations. I enjoyed reading it.

Of course, child abuse is the worst, to me inconceivable, a life sentence, betrayal on the highest level, it's carried through a child's life, they're supposed to be safe and secure, well done Gypsy, I don't know if it will eradicated completely, but every bit of awareness helps, beautifully done, blessings, Roy
