dahlia (Free verse) by katinchina
Did you ever think of what was to be When you lay there all bright eyed with anticipation Did you ever think it would end –the pain That tore you up and left you scarred, changed Did you ever think that smile would fade That came when you burped and swayed with intoxication Did you think the world would change When you asked it to Did you laugh when you cried and thought you’d cheat death into living?

Up the ladder: self-righteousness
Down the ladder: Nihil Obstat
