Prize Of Destruction Huitain

Scarred the fire remembers her face,
seeing the beauty she once was.
In a forgotten time and place,
she was followed by such applause.
A light scratch using painted claws 
ripped up her gentle perfection. 
Those lines create such superb flaws
that grace this prize of destruction.
