He thrives on her pleas-- self-martyred, proud, and poised as he waits to die. I know I have sinned, drive the spikes in deeper! he pleads to his audience. A psychological murder of the heart-- bloodless and state-of-the-art. He yearns for a slow suicide, and beckons her to join him. Deafened by her own screams, with his foot upon her dreams, she looks away-- no tears in her eyes. Let none behold her. ©2002 RavenSnow "A conspiracy of silence speaks louder than words."
