This collection of poems was written during the UK lockdowns to try and make sense out of what was happening, and express thoughts in meaningful and at times humorous ways.

Taming a Tumultuous TerritoryHollywood westerns of the twentieth century brought a history of raucous frontier justice to life, but 1800s Colorado was anything but fiction. Bandits held up the Denver and Rio Grande train at Unaweep Switch, while another gang stole $50,000 from the express car at Cotopaxi. "The Bloody Espinosas," who left mutilated bodies along lonely mountain trails, terrorized southern Colorado. The Reynolds Gang held up South Park stagecoaches, while Tom...

The footsteps of silver kings, grizzled miners and sleek saloon girls faded, but their dark shadows still whisper in the halls and glide silently down the stairs. Heartbroken Dr. Luigi ended his life with a .45 at Silverton's Grand Imperial but still makes his nightly rounds, checking on guests' health. Furious Liz, abandoned by her lover, breaks dishes and throws pots around the Forest Queen's kitchen. The laughter of the Tarabino children echoes through the halls of their home, now the T...

And it turned me on even more when I could serve him sexually. One day Dylan started to make me bit by bit his slave, his marriage whore. I needed daily satisfaction. No matter if...

I would describe myself as a tough career woman, buxom and athletic, forty-three years old. My skin was tight, well toned, my breasts large and heavy with very sensitive nipples and my thighs a real delight for men. I no longer wanted to be alone and searched for contacts on relevant sites. A man caught my interest who wanted to explore my limits with me. I quickly fell for him. His dominant manner turned me into a will-less slave. He paid attention to me, life together with him was intoxi...

My sweetheart had a pretty whacky idea. He wanted to lend me to his friend Paul. He, in turn, was supposed to educate me to be a slave who lets herself be taken by several men. Paul and his friends went very hard to the point with me. I was made into a willing woman, a real slave, by every trick in the book. Whereas, if I'm honest, I actually only get extremely aroused when I'm threatened with violence or treated with violence and humiliation. My upbringing lasted for one horrible night......
