Defensive bile rises thick with unexplainable bruises. Shadows swoop and peck at a façade she thought was shaken. Cowering with fear and arrogance she reaches for wasted wisdom - instead erupts with starvation. Dignity drains silently from her wounds. Shame kissed you in the morning, always in acute darkness. See her now writhing and scratching at your door. I hope she was your sweetest ****.
