Odd, but serious question. I've been clearing out my drafts and happened upon this. Sometimes if I'm asked for help with a poem I'll copy into my drafts because its easier to work with. Its dated August last year and I have absolutely no idea if I wrote it or if I was working on it for someone:

Dear Diary

I can hear his hounds baying in the distance
they must have gotten my scent
from the scarf he'd slipped into his pocket
just before he slapped my horse into a canter

he'd caught me, just some hours before
on the floor, naked with another man
and he, stood there
had his eyes on the way too long ago
and so, fell headlong into his own shit-storm
because he thought the sun shone
from my posterior

like I never had an ulterior or contingency
god, this one was easy 'takin candy from a baby'

but now I fear for my life
'cause it's no secret that his last one
(the third wife) was found strangled to death
at the bottom of Wood-view creek

she'd been there at least three weeks before anyone noticed her missing
then when they found her
the whole town searched high and low for the man
he'd seen running away from his house
all that time ago

I'm not sure if you tried this ... I copied & pasted a couple of stanzas to Google to see what would pop up .. No references to DUP - or otherwise definitive leads.

Cheers man, I tried that before I posted it here. Thing is its written from a females perspective, my worry is that I was working on it and whoever owned it either scrapped it or just never published it. Figured the best thing to do was throw it up here and see if anyone recognized it.

early days yet I s'pose
