Sharp Abundance
Sometimes
every choice
holds a thorn,
every option
carries loss,
every path
every turn
every trail
leads always
inevitably
to regret.
And thus you,
surveying
what stands
before you,
number the
sharpest
of hazards
among your
shining hoard
of abundance.

Safety is astronomically expensive.
I'm a queer, genderfluid, chronically ill DV survivor & parent. I fled my abuser over a year ago, and the first DV protection order that I sought—without a lawyer—was denied. We've been in court for over a year, and my 2-year-old was exposed to months of dangerous split custody because of mistakes that I made before I was able to secure legal representation. No pro bono lawyers were available but I found a DV expert who charges on a sliding scale. Unfortunately, the sliding scale *starts* at $200/hr, so that's what I pay.
I've fundraised over $10k for legal expenses, and with trial coming up, I anticipate needing that much again over the next 2 months. Right now, the EMERGENCY BILL is $2,343 and I need to pay it by this Monday, September 14.
The firm also wants to keep a $2,000 trust so that they can pay my bills from that first and I don't tip into legal debt, like I have right now.
On top of that, I'm out of gas, and have a $250 bill due on Tuesday. We really, really need help. We are physically safe right now, with a new DV protection order in place, but it's essential to stay on top of these bills to survive the final hurdles of family court.
Finally, my abuser has harassed me all over the fediverse and I had to switch servers without being able to port my followers yet. That means my fundraising visibility has been trashed. Your boosts + follows are vital to helping us reach our goal.
Thank you!!!

THANK YOU to those who helped pay off the last legal bill! Since I was unable to contribute to the trust, the newest bill is due in full immediately. It's another $1,919.
This is especially urgent because we just received two biased, problematic court orders and have to immediately request clarification and changes to maintain our safety and fight an unfair penalty.
This time I'd also love to get caught up with the $2,000 legal trust, and I also have bills to cover this week that I'm well short of.
Thank you!!!

Sabotaged Trust
some learn
at tender ages
to guard
themselves
from others
their faith
in the world
around them
damaged
by harmful
words spoken
deeds done
wounds taken
at the hands
of people
who have
surrendered
to selfishness
and wrath
to seek out
their revenge,
who have
forgotten
theirs is not
the only life
that matters
in the world,
who have
decided
other's hearts
are merely
objects to crush
along the path,
who have been
taught
to fear no
consequences
for the harms
they force
on others,
until finally
trust lies
bloodied
and broken
outmatched
by the slings
and arrows,
pinned down
by the boot
on the neck,
crying out
for mercy
in vain while
bystanders
scurry past
and do
nothing

Creating takes time, energy, and support. Toss a coin to your writer?
Gratitoot!
Since I started my own shop at https://payhip.com/NickEastIndieWriter in an attempt to sell my ebooks more directly I've already sold three books! 😊
I'd like to name and commend the buyers but I don't think I should put their emails online 😜 But interestingly, they were all from Australia, which feels interesting since I'm Finnish... 😁

Decisive Energy
doubt
is a maze
that obscures
the viable
choices
open to us
and distracts
from our
debts
that are
to be settled
by taking
action
to prove
our intentions
are solid
goals
to achieve
and not words
that waste
energy

A little support goes a long way. If you’d like to help me keep creating, consider buying me a Ko-Fi!
What I fear most is not one difficult day, but that my children will continue to live this way and become accustomed to deprivation. I hope that one day they will think about their dreams and their future instead of just their basic needs. 🔃🥹❤️
