No Discrimination
My words tasted like truth.
But the taste was too much for your sensitive palate
The spice too strong
The salt too bitter
It wasn't meant for one such as you
Someone with a soft belly
And naivety that bordered on the edges of dangerous.
So like a child without their unwavering resilience.
You broke on the blunted point.
Armor parting like fluid to bare your vulnerable flesh.
You lay desolated before me
Screaming at the indignity
At the unfairness
I can only shake my head in disgust
How could you have gone on so long without knowing?
Nothing in life is fair.
But the taste was too much for your sensitive palate

You broke on the blunted point.
Armor parting like fluid to bare your vulnerable flesh.

Screaming at the indignity
At the unfairness

How could you have gone on so long without knowing?
Nothing in life is fair.
