Pest

Shall you crawl back here Pressed into the crevice of your choice And no repentance bare For the canker from your dark device You will not gnaw nor litter This domain that trust misplaced in you Somthing dark and sinister Compelled your judgment to err, brew Its black bitter bile in you And made you on our innocense chew It does not matter, the end Gives cockroaches nothing more to offend.

This bit of angst is so well written, Debbie.. I especially love the last line, which nails the message to the wall! Love, Annalise
