The Apology Written by Eve Ensler

Through this letter of unveiling; a young girl exposed to an empire of despair gains a  modicum
 of ablution
Created in the voice of her long dead father she articulates the momentous confession he should have  conveyed; not necessarily for retribution
The victim is consumed by self-loathing, mental turbulence, and grief
While the witness battles against overwhelming doubt and disbelief
That the abuser dares to rationalize the lewd & lascivious behavior
Implying he lacked control, he misinterpreted, that she was the inevitable traitor
The author, Eve, penetrates the veil of sexual and psychological trauma only intimated
That most people incorrectly conclude takes one that looks visibly evil to have orchestrated
The devastating revelation comes when she gives voice to the cacophony of deleterious effects
Culminating from emotional desertion, and unrestrained perversion that went unchecked
Her mother and siblings bared witness to her gradual physical, physiological, and spiritual degradation
The author devises an atonement of sorts from bits of recollections, conversations and broad introspection
Pulsating with posthumous clemency, self-actualization and reprimands for victim oppression and mental dejection
I found myself emotionally invested in Eve's veracious memoir; this transparent letting of humiliation and despair
Exposing the rocky landscape that millions are forced to navigate; her words, expose, cleanse, exhort, and illuminate making us all accountable, making us all aware

A Man Out For Blood Written By Dan Ames

A hit took out an influential man’s entire family causing him to emotionally digress He then hired three professional assassins’ who only managed to cause him further distress Reacher was the intended target with a ten million dollar bounty on his head Wagner the liaison crossed boundaries ensuring he would be among the dead Tallon and Pauling put themselves on the case after rumors filtered through That Jack Reacher was the target although the evidence was a ruse All three assassins begin the job with failed and sloppy hits Considering their inept start one would think none of them were legit The breach of information placed the assassins in each other’s sights The Rat dispatched Clayton with effortless efficiency; bringing a knife to a gunfight Wagner became a casualty call it guilt by association It appeared that no one involved would earn the erroneous appropriation Unbeknownst to the Zurich Collective Bohm the mastermind and puppeteer had personal motives t...
