i am Rapunzel. captured behind a stone wall slick with acid, coated with barbed wire. i beat and i pound at the wall, until the flesh is torn and my bones crumble. i scream and i cry, until my voice cracks and my throat bleeds. i pray and i persevere, but no matter how much i try, the wall will not budge.
i am Rapunzel. captured behind a stone wall, slick with acid, coated with barbed wire. i cut my hair and dripped it out the window like garland, but no one climbs through. i sing a broken hallelujah, like a songbird with a wish bone in her throat. i search hi and lo for the key to my tower, but there is only stone and a locked door.
i am Rapunzel. captured behind a stone wall slick with acid, coated with barbed wire. i hold the fragments of my hope in my ****** palms, i water them with my tears. some day my prince will come, perhaps with a silver key in one hand, and the Promise Land in his eyes.
I suppose this is a little better than the previous temper tantrum that was published.
