Water Rose Shattered

A picture drawn of current worry

of horror and thoughts untold

and even in the rose petals' flurry

I realize I've been sold.

Sold to the coldhearted society's thrall

and they toss me around to each other

and laugh as I almost shatter when I fall,

dizzying circles of facings smother

hopes of recovering from the whirlwind

and they poke and prod at me

and ask me if I can see

that I'm the one who sinned...
