sister awake

Beware… sketchy art by the author

dormant daughter dared

donned destructive damages
like a cardiac crutch

broke behavioral bindings
hadn’t learned much
accidental aptitude adjustment

The Heart is a Liar, Sister

AWAKE!

yes
the heart it lies
it must die
over and over again
to live
to learn

independent thought
critical
menace to society
originality would have won
but it was executed by none

dog keeps barking words into her big floppy sappy ears
who knows if they are sincere
unease is real
wading through fresh apologies that smell stale
familiar rot
forgot the plot

save puppy eyes for someone who still gives a shit
the carrot or the stick
please sir may I have another
oh brother
i am not your mother
vicious circles
the hare of the dog
