dark

she nursed her hurt like a just-born child

gave it her breast heavy with poisons wild

raised it on a malevolent book of rage

with spiteful stories screaming page on page

she fed it venom and stuffed it with hate

and reared it grandly to an inevitable fate

she nursed her hurt till her hurt nursed her

and suckled her back from a milky blister

Till an abyss yawned dreamily as dark as coal

and gawped and grinned and gobbled her whole.
