Like wild fire. Soon consuming her.

Twisted Knickers-Collaboration Open to Poets

Some people wind up with twisted knickers
When they get insulted by nitpickers
Words are sticks and stones
Causing moans and groans
When they hear heckling whispers and snickers

To my knees, I fall and begin to pray

inevitably they become
your sole purpose for living,
your entire self turned inside out,
those small addictions 
inevitably grow
