Indifference? Indifferent most of the time, often at rest. But, always with one eye open. Coiled, ready to spring, to attack. Claws and teeth bare, green eyes flash. And she begins to stalk, never wavers then suddenly, she pounces. Claws like razors, slice, dig, break the skin of my resistance. Injecting the germs of doubt, loathing, and fear. Which begin to fester, until the balm of your love once more heals the scar. ~celtic rose 1999 ~ [This message has been edited by sheba57 (edited 07-01-99).] [This message has been edited by sheba57 (edited 07-01-99).] [This message has been edited by sheba57 (edited 07-01-99).] [This message has been edited by sheba57 (edited 07-01-99).] [This message has been edited by sheba57 (edited 07-01-99).] |

You had me tail and all with this one. Very, very nicely done. I particularly like the line "Injecting the germs of doubt, loathing, and fear." |
