Bewilderment lies among her sheets
For beneath remains bloodstains
of passion's pleasure.
While on the surface bloodstain's anger
contaminates her joy.
Captivating touches beneath
break through her mail.
Keeping happiness far from her arm's reach.
Darkness coupled with deception soaks her sheets.
Her eyes are bloody with hate
For there remains a deadly fate.

(Charlestown, Rhode Island) - Welcome to AILEEN’S GUESTHOUSE where locals and lodgers have more in common than first meets the eye. And, there's plenty of blame to go around.
Kimberly has gone from a well-paid female executive one minute to a desperate woman the next. Thinking her day can't possibly get any worse, she finds out how wrong she is when she goes home. The only way to set things straight is to get even.
